A friend of mine was bemoaning the weather change today, talking about how much harder it is to run in colder weather. I can relate - I'm not a runner, but with asthma, any outside exercise in winter is extra-challenging. So I came back from lunch determined to find her some indoor running track options...and I wasn't disappointed.

Chicago has a rich freelancing community, and I'm so glad to be part of it. We have thousands of creatives, and many of us work in little shared workspaces where (almost) anything goes. Including office yoga. I just did some.
Does this city make Oprah look fat?

Nope, no way. Oprah still looks great, even if she gained some weight. She's all over the news today because of her big show taping tomorrow, so all weekend I've heard people Oprah-bashing. Maybe you disagree with her whole philosophy, or the content of some of her shows, or maybe you're just pissed off that Michigan Avenue will be closed tomorrow...but don't get lazy and hate on her weight.

Maybe you know about Critical Mass, a monthly gathering of bicyclists at Daley Plaza aimed to unite the community and remind folks in cars that folks on bikes also need room on the road. But did you know there will be another community of people on wheels joining the next Critical Mass? That's right: wheelchairs!

In case you weren't awake at 6:30 this morning (I'm usually NOT) I spent a few minutes talking with WGN Radio's Greg Jarrett about this blog and - you guessed it - Hot Doug's. I promise that after today, we'll take a little break from talking about encased meats. Here's our quick chat. Greg's a sweetie. If you're near the Tribune Tower today, be sure to swing by the ChicagoNow booth!
