Good morning.
I am Councilmember Jose Velasquez, and it is a great day in Austin, Texas.
Actually, has the mayor stepped out yet?

It is a great day in Austin, Texas, and today with friends and family, we celebrate and recognize We Outside ATX.
Born from an idea that healing and health must be accessible and they must center culture and community, We Outside ATX has redefined what it means to be an inclusive wellness space.
More than just a run club, We Outside ATX has connected hundreds of individuals to a growing community that moves together, serves together, and experiences life outside together.
