#fbf to when we oohed and aahed in person over the beautiful country where the poverty rate is zero AND about one in three residents is a millionaire dang

So...this is how much of a geek I really am. During the recent #London trip, we got to visit Regent Street; while everyone else was gushing over the high end retailers (Coach, Harrod's... you name it), I was more excited to spot the @lululemonuk store. I walked in, oohed and aahed over the latest menswear line (I had to steel myself away, cause I already have more gym gear than underwear #truestory #dontask), stared longingly at the yoga mats and duffel bags (I already have both and am perfectly happy with them – mine #sparkjoy), and decided to snap up photos of the interiors instead. I just really, really like the space and shop. I'm not one to give in to branding and fall for good marketing, but wandering around the store felt more like visiting a slightly older, more successful entrepreneur friend's flat (a really fit friend who juices, dabbles with veganism but has a penchant for poke bowls, foam rolls before naps, and breaks into chaturangas when he's not killing CrossFit WODs). For me, that's what a lot of fitness is about – it's ambitious and aspirational. Sure, you might get winded today and struggle to complete a workout, but if you play your cards right, scale down your goals, eat more greens and keep at it, you might just get there sooner than you think. It was nice to be reminded of that even though I was away from my usual routine and programming. "This is not your practice life. This is all there is." #lululemonuk
