The Gathering of the Tribe
This tribe is our community, our church, our group of like minded individuals. We share stories, make deep connections on runs using little or no words, and we find ourselves amidst groups where no one gives a sideways glance about a 6 hour run through the mountains.

I'm Not the Outdoor Type — Here's How I Get Active Anyways
Growing up in the suburbs of metro Detroit, I was less of a Huckleberry Finn and more of a Harriet the Spy — always observing the world and people around me, but never straying far from the familiarity of my neighborhood blocks.
For me, adventure meant treading every nearby street with my best friend by bike, slapping our spare change on the counter of the neighborhood convenience store for daily slurpees and packs of Sour Patch Kids to split between the two us.
Grocery Shopping While Gluten-Free
Winding our way through the aisles of the supermarket, the familiar landscape of our neighborhood grocery store now looms large; shelves stocked with products that hold a strange power over me simply on the merit of the ingredients they contain.
