I love #Hoka running sneakers. And I think Marni is a cool designer. But I'm stumped whether I like this collab or think these are terrible. They are kind of fun, but um, not sure. Either way, the price is too high.

You have to work upstream of a problem if you're going to fix the cause. Working downstream only fixes the result.
And that's what we've been doing with healthcare for the past 8 decades.

Swing by and get some joe, maybe a 'spro, and stick around for the author panel. Should be a great time.
