#CoffeewithLarry Episode 803 October 21, 2025 Media Challenges in the Modern World Chicago Marathon Stories
This is my daily chat #RunBlogRun viewers and follow fans on everything track and field.
Our topics:
1. Great setup in Chicago for the media.
2. The challenge is that there is a lack of sports coverage in local newspapers in the marathon world.
3. In Chicago, it was RW, LetsRun, Race Results Weekly, RunBlogRun, Flotrack, Runnerspace, and Track & Field News.
4. How do we develop a new generation of sports media?
5. On the most popular social networks. Kathy Moon and Femke Ball are very popular among our readers.
6. Connor Mantz shipped in Chicago, according to the media, his phone is going crazy. Well done Connor.
7. We are going to New York next week.
8. I am looking forward to my first indoor meet of the year, the NB Indoor Grand Prix on January 24, 2026. www.nbindoorgrandprix.com
