You know how some people say, "If you see me running, something is chasing me?" This is the one month where you don't need to be worried, as they're probably participating in a Halloween-themed race.

Even if fast zombies and buff ghosts aren't your thing, there's plenty around town to help keep you fit this month.

And if your workout wardrobe needs a refresh, check out the newly opened Lovyt at The Shops at Legacy. This shop features culturally inspired luxury activewear made from pre- and post-consumer waste.
