lululemon on 6th & Lamar does free yoga classes taught by rotating instructors from around the city every Saturday morning, but they’re usually way too early for me. This time, however, they’re honoring the two crazy Canadians who are running a marathon a day to help save the environment, and they’re gonna be there doing [...]

The Worst Run of My Life
I attempted a 12-miler on Saturday morning and thought I was going to pass out on the side of the road, as my stomach was ripped out of my body by three fists grabbing and twisting it until it snapped. Or because I ate a big egg-white omlette with ground beef and turkey bacon and [...]
