This is my daily chat with #RunBlogRun viewers and track fans on all things track & field!
This is Coffee with Larry for Monday, August 12, 2024.
Coffee with Larry is sponsored by OMIUS, the official cooling technology partner of RunBlogRun.
1. We feature the hat, visor, and headband from OMIUS, which uses cooling pods to keep you cool during a workout or run.
Omius is the official cooling technology partner of RunBlogRun.
2. You assemble the OMIUS hat, visor, or headband, put water on the cooling pods, and start to work out! That simple, you add water to the pods every 30-45 minutes while you are moving, and they keep you cool!
