Go for a stroll along Melbourne's foreshore on a Saturday morning and you'll notice a change over the past 12 months. A gradual change but difficult to miss, they have taken over footpaths and coffee shops everywhere. Run clubs. 🏃 Hundreds of runners, of all fitness levels getting up at the crack of dawn to run, chat and coffee. They have popped up all over the place, in country towns, suburbs and cities. And the growth isn't surprising. The State of the Nation Report for 2023 found that loneliness is on the rise here in Aus, especially for those aged 18-24. An alarming statistic that was amplified by Covid and continues today. So enter run clubs and the reason for their success: 👟 Low barrier to entry: its for everyone, you just need a pair of trainers 👟 Kills two birds with one stone: meet people and get fit 👟 Scales very well on social media: content is approachable & shareable 👟 Fills a gap: we have been missing true connection and community 👟 We love coffee: and it usually finishes with a flat white, ultimate incentive And despite us being more digitally 'connected' than ever, we are still missing out on real human connection. Communities have always played an essential role in human societies and while not for everyone, run clubs have found a segment of the market that caters for their needs and desires. Anyone in a run/cycle/swim/gaming/book club or similar? What do you get out of it?

Food, transportation issues hang over 2024-Paris Games — French daily The Organizing Committee also stated that they have increased the volume and portions of food needed to nourish the participating athletes PARIS, July 29/ The organizers of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris are aware of the athletes' complaints about problems with transportation and food and are working to resolve the issues, the press office of the 2024-Paris Organizing Committee announced to French daily Le Parisien on Monday. "The organizers assure that they are doing their utmost to improve the punctuality of transportation serving the Olympic Games," the press office told the daily. "A significant amount of staff has been mobilized in order to provide better bus service and to support athletes." "Moreover, an additional fleet of motor vehicles and buses have been organized as well," according to the organizers. The Organizing Committee also stated that they have increased the volume and portions of food needed to nourish the participating athletes. "Some of the foodstuffs, for instance eggs and grilled meat, are very popular among athletes, so we increased the quantity of this food," the organizers continued. "For example, the portion of grilled meat is now 900 grams [31.7 ounces] per athlete per day." Athletes participating in the Games previously complained repeatedly about insufficient food and that some foods were unavailable at the Olympic Village. For instance, members of the German national field hockey team called the food offered at the Olympic Village a disaster, while athletes from the British national team opted to eat at their team’s headquarters after an extra cook was invited for this purpose. Athletes from various countries also voiced their dissatisfaction over delays with transportation, as well as trips to reach sports facilities from their places of accommodation taking way too long. As an example, six swimmers from the South Korean national team decided to leave the Olympic Village, saying its location was too far away from the swimming facility in Paris that hosts the Olympic competitions. According to the swimmers, they had to spend almost two hours instead of the previously promised 45 minutes to get to the sports swimming facility, so they decided to move from the Olympic Village to a hotel, which is located just a five-minute walk from their sports facility. The 2024 Summer Olympic Games are hosted by the French capital of Paris between July 26 and August 11. #business #finance #financialservices

New figures from Transport for London show passengers flocking to the Capital for Christmas events this festive season. This follows our own data showing footfall in the West End surging on Black Friday weekend. Our Chief Executive, Ros Morgan, gives her thoughts on the news: “Visitors are returning to the West End ahead of the festive period, with businesses, theatres and other attractions in the heart of London working hard to deliver for them. “However, visitor numbers are yet to reach pre-pandemic levels. That is why we continue to push for policies to encourage people to visit London, such as tax-free shopping for international visitors and long-term strategic funding for TfL to improve transport infrastructure.” Read more in today’s Evening Standard: https://lnkd.in/gYWEb6EN

What is holistic wellness to you? I recently had a conversation with a colleague about this. The word “holistic" tends to get thrown around a lot, but it's never truly defined. To me, Wel at Humana is the true definition of "holistic wellness." We've adopted Exos' approach and encourage individuals to think of well-being in four main pillars. It's fine-tuning not only your physical health through movement, but it's dialing in on nutrition, channeling a growth mindset, and always prioritizing recovery. For peak performance – whether you're a professional athlete, corporate executive, or stay-at-home parent – you must maintain balance in all four areas. Striving for that balance is when we reach holistic wellness.

To be candid, I have mixed feelings about small gyms at apartment complexes. I think if you have a 'small gym' its probably not worth it, cuz they feel musty and small. But if you can provide a medium-large sized gym, then they're a great amenity for prospective residents. I mean, if you walked onto a new property to check out if you want to rent there, you wouldn't MIND having a great gym, right?   That being said, I don't see gyms at most apartments full of people on any occasion. So I don't think its a 'must have.'  What do you think? Do you like this gym at our San Antonio property? #realestate #realestateinvesting #multifamily #multifamilyinvesting #apartmentinvesting #investing
