RunBlogRun comments: The New York Times has done a tremendous job on covering the coronavirus. Their top notch coverage of the IOC challenges with postponing the Olympics has been top notch. Juliet Macur, Karen Crouse, Andrew Keh and Matthew Futterman have done an excellent job here. Knowledge is power. Lots of BS out there, please take information from respected media.

Olympians Have Another Year to Prepare for Tokyo. It’s a Blessing and a Curse.

The life of an Olympic athlete can be challenging and austere, and the training schedule can be relentless. Most athletes wanted a postponement, though even that has its challenges.

Steele Johnson, a diver who won a silver medal for the United States at the 2016 Rio Games, woke up Tuesday morning to texts from friends saying they were so sorry that the Summer Olympics had been postponed. They knew how hard it had been for Johnson, 23, and his wife, Hilary, to make ends meet as he pursued a gold medal in Tokyo.
