Thirsty Thursdays – Runs, Events, & More
As the first Thursday of the month often goes, this one is jam-packed with things to do. Behold: The Moonlight Margarita Run has only been around 4 years and has already turned into one of Austin’s most infamous running events. The Town Lake Trail Foundation hosts the 5K, with an 8pm start time, as a…
Tuesdays? + a full Wednesday
Last Tuesday, I ran into a friend and frequent reader of this blog at Bikram Yoga Davenport (love it!) and she asked what was going on that night. “A Tuesday night? I don’t know, I’m at yoga!” Aside from Bikram Yoga classes and the Nike Human Race training run at Guero’s (can’t wait to check that…

You can also shop–their boutique carries the exclusive collection from Zobha, as well as lululemon and Hardtail Forever. I think this is the class they…
Review: Parkside
Parkside came to Austin amidst much fanfare–how many nice restaurants are in the midst of the 6th Street strip? It also has a sweet rooftop patio. A friend of mine was in from Dallas and had met a friend of owner/executive chef Shawn Cirkiel who said he HAD TO GO, so we went a couple…
