Electric Run Austin 5Ks

The Electric Run is a weird 5K that’s coming to Austin tomorrow, March 30th

Thanks to everyone who took the time to send in their Austin questions this week! From weird Austin 5Ks to chill music venues, you’ve asked us to cover some great topics on today’s episode!

Though we received a lot of fascinating questions, we picked the ones we thought would be most interesting to the Austinot community as a whole. Here they are:

  • “Where is the best chill music venue in Austin?” -@AmandaMCaldwell, Twitter
  • “What is the worst weather Austin has ever experienced?” –Tiffany Harelik, Facebook
  • “What is the weirdest 5K in Austin?” –Shawn Collins, Facebook
  • “What are the best seats to reserve at each Alamo Drafthouse?” –Kenneth Bloomer, Facebook
