Can track stars really go mainstream?
Speed gets you respect. But does it make you famous?
In this episode we break down why Track & Field has struggled to create mainstream stars, why fast times alone may not be enough, and what athletes need to do if they want real market value outside the sport.
From content and personality to storytelling, brand deals, fan connection, and the difference between Olympic fame and everyday relevance — this is a conversation about what track needs next.

The panel doesn't land in the same place on everything. That tension is in the episode.
