In a busy episode, Rich, Hannah and Katie give their reaction to Ruth Chepng'etich's three-year doping ban, and what could happen next.

There's a look back at the Valencia Half Marathon, where the women's world record was again under attack by Agnes Ngetich and Andreas Almgren picked up a European record - plus there's a preview of a stacked New York City Marathon - the last major of the year.
