Lessons From a Half Marathon: Do Epic Shit.
Running was one of those things that always seemed about as pleasurable to me as a root canal without Novocaine. I could not understand why people would put themselves through such a boring and pointless form of exercise. It began in middle school, when our gym teacher would make us run around the track like [...]
When All You Have Is Your Own Two Feet
Growing up a dancer there has been almost no period in my life where I wasn’t involved in physical activity of some sort (minus junior and senior year of college and believe me… it showed).

This week we’re going to focus on one of the best total body conditioning exercises there is… the plank. Be careful not to confuse this with “planking,” [...]
From the Editor: When did you know?
