This week on Instagram: gymshortsstuds

With fewer than a 1,000 Instagram followers when I first stumbled upon this account (thanks to the suggestion of my friend in real life and on IG @juliandachille), I’m pretty certain that this is an account most of you are not aware of and might like to follow.

As the handle suggests, it is chalk full of athletic looking men shirtless and in many instances wearing gym shorts. If you’re looking for some ‘gymspiration’ this might be a good account for you to add to your Instagram feed.

Hub on Causeway

boston real estateWith all the construction happening in the South End and Seaport it can be easy to forget that the number of large construction projects happening in downtown Boston neighborhoods is astounding when compared to the city’s recent history.

One project that recently caught my attention is The Hub on Causeway, which is transforming the West End. The project includes office space, housing, hotel, retail and more:

  • more than 850,000+ square feet of office space
  • more than 200,000 square feet of retail/restaurant space, including a new grocery store and cinema
  • 540 new underground parking connected to an existing garage
  • 440 residential units
  • 260 room hotel

SSRun 2018 registration is now open

SSR BostonThe 18th annual SSRun will take place on Saturday, December 8th

The SSRun began in Boston in 2000 with 5 guys just looking to spread some holiday spirit by running through Back Bay in only Santa hats and Speedos. Since then it has grown to include 700 men and women each year and has become an annual holiday tradition that has hosted thousands of participants who have helped to raise nearly $2 million for local children in need.

Long time readers of this blog will be familiar with this Boston tradition that has been replicated in many cities around the U.S. If you live in Boston and are interested in learning more visit their website, ssrunners.org.

Trophy Boy: a short film

gay film, independent film

Have you heard about this gay short film (13-minutes) that centers on James (played by Emrhys Cooper)? It is definitely entertaining to watch. I’ve included a brief write up about the short film below along with a link to its Vimeo page and password. If you watch the film, let me know what you think.

About Trophy Boy: The film centers on James, a sexy, youthful sought-after Instagram star in high-society, and self-proclaimed “trophy” who gets dumped by his wealthy live-in benefactor just before turning 30. James quickly learns that the real world cares little for his Instagram “celebrity” as the world he’s so carefully cultivated online crashes head on with reality.

Head of the Charles is this weekend

Regatta

Head of the Charles Regatta is Saturday and Sunday

The Head Of The Charles Regatta (HOCR) is a Boston area tradition that dates back to 1965 and has evolved into a massive two-day rowing competition that draws more than 11,000 athletes and 400,000 spectators, making it the largest rowing event in the world. The 2018 HOCR takes place this Saturday and Sunday during chilly weather conditions, but if you’ve not been before, I’d suggest heading down to the Charles River to cheer on these amazing athletes.

HEAD OF CHARLES REGATTA – OCTOBER 20-21

The organizers have created a great website that includes more information about the races, maps and FAQs. You can learn more by visiting the official HOCR website, www.hocr.org.
