Healthy happy you.
I know the title of this post seems odd so I am just going to start by clarifying that no, I do not think you should start a running group where you read as you run.

The cost of raising a dog is extremely high. In fact, if you look at rates to fly with your dog on airplanes, it's sometimes almost equivalent to what we humans are paying for a plane ticket. And it all adds up — you end up spending a never-ending amount of cash on toys, crates, flea medication, checkups, and the list goes on.

I'm (unfortunately) pretty good at talking myself out of exercising, which is probably why I rarely hit the gym alone. This year, my penchant for having a fitness buddy went to the next level: I helped start a fitness meet-up group. The name is pretty unoriginal — The Workout Club — but our methods are a little more rigid than just calling each other for the occasional fitness date. Each Read more

The following book review comes from Buzz Community member Igboprincess, who posted it in the Book Club group. One book series that I am so glad I read is the Hunger Games trilogy! The movie is coming out soon, so I suggest you read the first book before seeing it because the book is always better. Here's a summary for you!
