    With less than 200 days to the start of the Tokyo Olympics, Japan is planning to declare a state of emergency in the city and three nearby prefectures this week because of rising coronavirus cases, Kyodo News reports.

    That could go into effect by Friday, Kyodo News said, becoming the country’s second state of emergency since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Still, Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga continued his pledge to hold the Olympics this summer and “bring hope and courage to the world.”

    Breaststroke specialist and former world record holder Rebecca Soni was still consuming dairy when she earned her six Olympic medals, but she didn’t feel good while doing it. Post swimming career, she no longer felt pressured to ingest dairy products and decided to ditch them to help her stomach issues and severe allergies. Her instincts were right all along—dairy wasn’t helping her performance, it was weighing her down.

    In this video, I can honestly say that we explored one of the most spectacular places that I’ve seen in my entire life! I’m a big fan of freediving caves and sinkholes and getting to explore previously unknown sinkholes is such a treat for me! We go to 3 sinkholes in this video that have been scuba dived extensively but they haven’t been explored by freedivers. What we found was something pretty incredible!
