This is Coffee with Larry, Episode 908, June 19, 2026.

Coffee with Larry is the almost daily podcast from RunBlogRun. Coffee with Larry began in June 2022, in Springfield, Oregon, while

I was covering the USATF Championships, prior to the Eugene World Champs.

Our topics today:

1. NIKE Outdoor Nationals on day 2. www.nikeoutdoornationals.runnerspace.com

2. USATF and NON broadcast cooperate, but not really. Silly that you have to go from NON to USATF.TV during a championship! Talk about making it hard for viewers.

3. NBO, who watches long streaming events? Thousands of family members and fans are all over it. www.nbnationalsout.com .

5. Brooks XC registration begins, Brooks XC, presented by Fleet Feet Sports, registration: https://www.fleetfeet.com/brooks-xc-championships

6. HOKA Summer of Miles is open. HOKA does not promote the program, which is a fun way to build miles. Reminds me alot of the Saucony program we did 2009-2015. I like the program; HOKA’s approach is fun.
