We named the Brooks Glycerin 21 our favorite cushioned running shoes for short and long distances, especially if you're training for a race. In our Brooks Glycerin 21 review, we said our first 5K run in them was pleasant, especially at slower speeds. And the shoes also proved to be a good companion for longer sessions on tired legs.
The Clifton is Hoka's most popular shoe line, and one of the most popular from any brand, and I rate it as one of the best shoes for new runners in particular thanks to the comfortable foam in its midsole. It's a generation old at this point, but still a very capable shoe.

Kylie Kelce Says Her Daughters Are Going to Camp for the First Time — and Reveals How She'll Manage Summer as a Mom of Four
Kylie Kelce is sharing her plans for the summer The podcaster revealed that her older daughters, Elliotte Ray and Wyatt Elizabeth, are going to be going to camp for the first time The mom of four shares her children with husband, retired NFL star Jason KelceKylie Kelce is opening up about her plans for her first summer as a mom of four. During the Thursday, June 19, episode of the Not Gonna Lie podcast, the mom of four, 33, revealed that her older daughters, Elliotte Ray, 4, and Wyatt Elizabeth, 5, would be going to camp for the first time. Since they are still young, Kylie said that it's only going to be for a couple of hours and not for the full week; however, the ultimate goal is to simply get them out the house. "My kids are officially done with their school year, so I thought I'd get honest about summer break as a parent. Everybody knows that when school lets out, that means we have all day every day at home with each other," the mom of four began. "This summer is the first summer where the girls are actually going to do some camps. And when I say camps, I mean, they're 5 and 4 guys. It's like a three- to four-day situation." "I think it's maximum three hours," she continued. "We're really it's just to get them out somewhere else, anywhere else, and moving around."

She went on to express the hardships of finding an activity that all of her children could enjoy, before sharing how she plans to manage summer break as a mom of four. "I will say that our age range right now, 5 to — I don't even know how old the youngest one is," she paused, before continuing, "I don't know. You get it. She's new. It's hard to find an activity for everyone." "So, as long as I can hook Finn to the front of me and everybody else has their shoes on, we just we get the heck out," she added. Kylie and her husband Jason Kelce, 37, who announced his retirement from the NFL in March 2024, are the proud parents of four daughters — newborn Finnley 'Finn' Anne, Bennett Llewellyn, 2, Elliotte Ray and Wyatt Elizabeth. The podcaster mused about Father's Day gifts that are 'actually for Mom,' during the June 12 episode of her Not Gonna Lie podcast. One of the items on her gift guide list was 'clothes you would like him to start wearing.' Kylie then quipped that if she was going to buy Jason clothes, she would go down a more unconventional route. "I'd probably buy him a banana hammock,' she noted of the revealing spandex thong one-piece famously worn by Sasha Baron Cohen's character Borat. 'Just kidding.

In an exclusive clip shared with PEOPLE ahead of an episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast in April, Kylie joined host Amanda Hirsch to discuss everything from parenting to welcoming her fourth baby. Kylie opened up about the exact moment she realized she wanted a fourth child. 'I've always said that I wanted four kids, [and] room for one pleasant surprise. If we had 5 kids, I'd be like that's enough, like we really need to stop,' ' Kylie explained. 'The one thing I will say is there was this moment when our third was probably like 6 months old, where I was like maybe this is good?" "And then when she hit about a year and some change, I … had this moment of 'Oh, I forgot one' because I kept thinking like I forgot the baby," she continued. "And then I'm like 'S--- no. All my toddlers are here.' I had three kids.' 'The switch that happened was when our youngest really started acting like a toddler, and then my brain started saying, 'You're forgetting the baby,' " she said, noting that this was the moment she knew she wanted to have a fourth baby. "I did not approach our third as if it were going to be my last, and so I have this mental block now where I think that one more baby is right.' Read the original article on People

At 30, I became friends with my 78 year-old Airbnb host. She's taught me key life lessons that help me feel less anxious about the world.
My husband and I met Judy and Evan after booking their adorably blue Airbnb home in Ontario. What we thought would be a typical Airbnb stay has blossomed into a long-lasting friendship. They've taught us that we can build a family away from home and not to take life too seriously. Imagine entering a beautiful, suburban home where everything is blue. From the rugs to the teapots to the dishes, paintings, and chair cushions. That's what happened to me and my husband last summer, when we booked an Airbnb for a weekend getaway in Prince Edward County, Ontario. Not only were we greeted by this omni-blue house, we were welcomed by Judy and Evan, a couple, both 78, with infectiously positive and friendly energy. Judy instantly made us feel at home, letting us know that we could use any space in the house. After our first night out, we came back, planning to tiptoe to the bedroom like courteous guests, but Judy and Evan were still up and invited us to join them in their living room. Before we knew it, we were chatting away for hours until midnight about everything from our families to our wedding to politics, food, and travel. It felt like we were around family. Fast-forward a year. Judy and I text often, exchange recipes, and she calls her and Evan our "Canadian grandparents" since my husband and I are immigrants from India with no family in Canada. We spontaneously visited them last month while in the area. Judy made us lentil buns and we all sat munching on them in their sun room chatting and, once again, losing track of time. It was during this visit that I realized how much their presence means to me, even in the short time I've known them. During that last visit, I asked Judy about whether she always knew she wanted children, and how I, as a 30-year-old woman, sometimes feel the pressure to decide. She joked, "You're so young, and you know it takes only nine months right?" She's helped me see life from a remarkably different perspective and feel more relaxed, something I have a hard time doing as a millennial. I always feel like I'm on a clock, competing against some unknown entity, and going after the next thing. Living in a big city like Toronto has only amplified these feelings. Judy and Evan's wisdom and attitude toward life, however, have helped me understand that we should remember to enjoy the moments we have and not take life so seriously. As an immigrant, homesickness is just a reality I've learned to deal with. However, meeting Judy and Evan showed me that I can build a family in a different country. Their generosity ensures that we never feel out of place. They invited us to their home for a stay this summer and offered to book our park passes in advance. We're always cautious not to overstay our welcome. Like when Judy invited us to their Father's Day barbecue, I tried to politely turn it down, saying we didn't want to intrude on their family gathering. She said, "Come on, you know me better than this by now." Living in big cities, my husband and I somehow lost the art of talking to strangers. Being open to sitting with Judy and Evan for an after-dinner conversation and spontaneously showing up has led to a beautiful friendship and taught us how to be more social. We're taking more short trips outside Ontario to experience the small-town charm. On almost all of these getaways, we've met people sitting next to us at restaurants, while walking, in a shop, or at Airbnbs. By simply making a small first gesture such as smiling or giving a compliment or asking someone seated at the next table what's good to order, we've been able to meet wonderful people. Not only did Judy and Evan teach me how to connect with people, I hope I can pass on this friendship and warmth to others. As we get ready to see them again, I am already excited about all the things I'll tell Judy, how loudly she'll laugh, and how insignificant all worries about my millennial life will feel.
