ON THE RUN

PRESENTED BY INSIDEHOOK + SAMSUNG 837

When you want to get down to brass tacks with someone, it can be helpful to break them out of their comfort zone. Keep ‘em on their toes. Then their heels. Then their toes again.

To clarify: we mean running.

We mean On the Run, a new video in partnership with our pals at Samsung in which we take to the streets with Samsung 837’s weekly Saturday Morning Run Club to grill some of our favorite folks on, well, whatever we feel like.

This go-round: a chat with Icelandic model Sigrún Jónsdóttir (try saying that five times fast — or even once, slowly) on her favorite movie villain, the perils of Icelandic cuisine and whether or not crying during a rom-com is acceptable man behavior.


In the NYC area? Get out to 837’s run club yourself — you’ll get your sweat on with some friendly folks and even have a chance to track your miles logged and cals burned with Samsung’s Gear Fit2. That sexy post-workout glow? Purely a bonus.

ON GUYS WITH TERRIBLE MANNERS VS. GUYS WITH TERRIBLE STYLE

“I think I’ll take terrible style. Because maybe it’ll be so bad that it’s good, and I hate terrible manners. I can’t deal with that sh*t.”
