This is Coffee with Larry for Monday, April 1, 2024.
Coffee with Larry is sponsored by JAMBAR, the Original Organic Artisan Sports Energy Bar founded in 2021 by Jenny Maxwell. You can find JAMBAR at www.jambar. Chock full of organic ingredients, made in small batches in Northern California, with 34 grams of carbs and 10 grams of protein, sweetened with maple syrup, JAMBAR should be your sports energy bar.
1. An enjoyable broadcast of World Cross Country!
2. I Did notice a small fan base at the event.
3. I Also noticed a dearth of European teams at the World Cross.
4. Courses must be in cold weather, with snow, mud, and hellacious 12k courses. That is part of the tradition. In the last two years, cross country was in very hot and humid conditions (Bathhurst, Australia did a fine job), and the almost manicured courses made that way for TV have not been drawing either participants or fans.

5. The Pasteurization of cross country has made it a track race on grass. That is not good for global support of the sport.
6. And you have a CHOICE on going over hay bales? Come on!
7. Kudos to the US, UK, and Australia, bringing teams, some from afar.
8. Total respect for Karoline Grovdal of Norway!
9. Weini Kelati, fantastic gutty race!
10. Why don’t we tell more about Beatrice Chebet and Jakob Kiplimo? Let’s tell the stories!
See you tomorrow on Coffee with Larry!
