When Lori Shannon first announced her intent to run a marathon, people responded with more than a hint of incredulity. Lori had no experience and, at 5’3” and a size 16, she didn’t cut the form of a typical distance runner. Even so, she set to work and completed the 1993 New York City Marathon, proving to herself that with the proper training and dedication, she need not live life as a spectator. Since crossing that first finish line, Lori has never looked back; she has since run multiple marathons, competed in triathlons, and ridden her bike cross-country.

Seven years later, Lori founded See Jane Run in San Francisco, hoping to empower women to test their limitations and bolster their own fitness and self-confidence. The female-operated fitness company has since grown to encompass four West Coast locations that sell women’s running gear, including shoes, sports bras, and aerodynamic shower caps. At its four retail locations, like-minded runners come together with free weekly run clubs, giving them a group setting in which to train to meet their own individual goals or prepare for one of See Jane Run’s half marathons or 5Ks.

Flowers give mouths something to do during tangos, turn vases into useful things, and can even express hard-to-verbalize emotions such as "suspicion that the newcomer to your rich uncle's book club is a traitor, or at the very least, an orangutan in human clothes." Today’s Groupon celebrates the many utilities of the flower with $40 worth of beautiful flora from Bell and Trunk Flowers for $20, all custom-arranged by Bell and Trunk's fastidious florists. Delivery is available for an additional fee.You: [Gender] Me: [Gender]
