In another busy episode, Rich and Hannah (Katie is preparing for the Women’s Euros semi-finals) take a look back at the London Diamond League meeting, which featured impressive sprint results for Julien Alfred, Oblique Seville and Charlie Dobson, a first Diamond League victory for Morgan Lake - and also marked Josh Kerr's return to action.

Andreas Trajkovski - long jumper and founder of Jumpers World - joins us to talk about the success of his platform, and the team discuss the fallout from a failed test for marathon world record holder Ruth Chepng'etich.
