This is my daily chat with #RunBlogRun viewers and track fans on all things track & field!
Good morning, this is #coffeewithLarry for Wednesday, April 26, 2023!
Our topics!
1. Please check out our #WitnesstheWonder features, numbers 1-9, (sponsored) https://www.runblogrun.com/…/witness-the-wonder-world…
2. The mother of Caitlyn Jenner, Esther, has passed away at the age of 96, our thoughts and prayers are with Caitlyn and her family.
3. Tara Davis received a 1-month ban from AIU and USADA for testing positive for marijuana, so she will lose her LJ title. Having weed as a banned substance just takes away, IMHO, from the important job of drug testing. When one smokes marijuana, one wants to order a pizza or some donuts, not run, jump and throw!
