This is my daily chat with #RunBlogRun viewers and track fans on track & field!

Today is Tuesday, April 9, 2025.
Coffee with Larry is sponsored by our friends at OMIUS, the cooling technology company, which you can find at www.OMIUS.IO.
If you are a coach or an elite athlete, send me a note at [email protected], and I will send you an OMIUS sample. The OMIUS folks would like some comments on their product!

Special thanks to PACE Events, managers of #DubaiMarathon, and the #RasAlKhaimahHalfMarathon (thanks to Peter Connerton and Alan Ewan).

Special thanks to Global Athletics & Marketing. Mark Wetmore, their co-founder and CEO, and his team of merry sports pranksters put on the #NBIndoorGP at the #TRACKatNewBalance, where I have gone for 28 of the past 30 years!

Finally, please support #BrooksRunning! Brooks has sponsored my projects since 1990 under Tom Carmody and Helen Rockey! Jim Weber kept the fire burning with Dave Larson, Jesse Williams, Dan Sheridan, Amanda Reiss, Garrett Heath, and Jillian Zech for their continued support. Brooks makes tremendous running shoes. I love the Glycerin Max, Cascadia GTX 16, and Brooks Ghost Max. To see Brook’s footwear and apparel, please go to www.brooksrunning.com!

Out topics today:
1. More thoughts on Grand Slam Track.

2. Looking forward to the second event in Miami.
3. What will GST learn from their first event?
4. Respecting the challenges of doing something new.
5. We ask you to check out #BostonBillyBlends running teas! We are conducting interviews with Emilie Rodgers and Bill Rodgers. Emilie is a tea entrepreneur, and Bill Rodgers, her uncle, is the 4 time Boston winner. You can find more info at www.BillRodgersRunningCenter.com! I tried the herbal tea (no caffeine) and Recovery Team (medium caffeine with green tea, lavender, and bee pollen). We highly recommend them!

Welcome to Coffee with Larry.
