Florida Just Florida'd To Reopen Gyms
You’re probably feeling a little pent up these days. And maybe running isn’t for you. Which is fine, because running sucks.

I’ll give you all a bit of a glimpse behind the scenes here. We’ve soured on “possible reopening plan” stories. We’re pretty much against running them until something is concrete.
