New Year's Resolutions


Working out is a somewhat foreign concept to many Italians. If you wear Nikes and jogging clothes around town you're one of two things:

A) a slouchy teenager
or B) American

If you are so inclined, gyms and equipment stores are far-flung. And you need a note from your doctor if you're over 40 years old.

As a result, die-hards usually jog or bike along the river in la Cascine--far from the designer shops on Via Tournabuoni.
