This is my daily chat with #RunBlogRun viewers and track fans on all things track & field!
This is Coffee with Larry for Friday, October 4, 2024.
Coffee and tea, Scottie’s Eat Mor, the iconic breakfast spot, Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, May 2024
Coffee with Larry is sponsored by OMIUS, the cooling technology company.
Omius is the official cooling technology partner of RunBlogRun
OMIUS makes hats, visors and head bands with OMIUS cooling pods, which, when moistened with water, will keep the athlete cool during workouts and races. The cooling pods should be moistened every 30-45 minutes during workout or race.

Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself." Also does some updates for BBC Sports at key events, which he truly enjoys.
