In 2025, pro runner, coach and lululemon athlete Phily Bowden’s leg busted which is hard for anyone, but is probably a *lot* harder for someone who lives their life in front of a camera. I met up with her and her coach Jonathan Green last week at Lake Mary for the NYT Well: her recovery is well in hand. I asked her about what she did to keep up her cardiovascular fitness as she rehabbed. She mentioned that she had to swim, not just that she swam, but that she had to learn *how* to swim. That’s some significant dedication. Another fun hobby she picked up over the last year: Birding! I helped her get eyes on her Merlin Bird ID bird of the day (TUVU) which was fun and a lifer for her!
