America's new distance superstar Grant Fisher joins us to talk all about his 12:53 5,000 and 26:33 10,000m American records.

What was Grant's mindset heading into the race, during the race, and where does he go from here? When did the record attempts come about, how tough is it to join Jerry Schumacher's Bowerman Track Club, has he heard from Galen Rupp and a ton more?
