Coffee with Larry, September 12, 2024, Kenny Bednarek and Fred Kerley to Grand Slam Track! ATHLOS announces streaming for Sept 26!

This is Coffee with Larry for Thursday, September 12, 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 headbands that can help keep you cool. OMIUS developed cooling pods, that fit into the hats, visors and head bands, and provided that you wet the pods each 30-45 minutes, you will stay cool during a strenuous workout!
