This is my daily chat with #RunBlogRun viewers and track fans on all things track & field!
This is Coffee with Larry for Wednesday, August 21, 2024.
Coffee with Larry is sponsored by #OMIUS, the cooling technology company. You can find OMIUS at www.omius.io
Omius makes hats, visors, and headbands with cooling pods that, once inserted, help keep you cool during a strenuous workout. Spray with water every 30-45 minutes during a workout, and OMIUS will keep you cool. It works; we’ve tried it!
Sifan Hassan, the Olympic marathon winner, wore the OMIUS headband in Paris. Bashir Abdi, the men’s silver medalist, also wore the OMIUS headband. In the very hot and humid conditions of the 20k race walk on August 1, Daniel Pintado, Ecuador, won the grueling walk wearing the OMIUS headband for most of the way.

Thanks, OMIUS, for sponsoring #CoffeewithLarry!
Our topics:
1. The Diamond League is back, with Lausanne, Switzerland at the stadium Pontaise in Lausanne.
2. The stadium seats 15,000 and is always sold out. Great fields in all events and three hours of thrilling competitions.
3. My favorite? In 2017, I saw the men’s pole vault, the women’s high jump, and some great races, one after another!
4. Peacock is featuring the end of the Diamond League season as well as World Athletics U20 Champs (August 27-30).
See you tomorrow on Coffee with Larry!
