Things To Do
Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail
The best trail to go for a nice walk/run around Lady Bird Lake. It's a 10-mile loop if you want to do the whole thing, or if you want to just do a few miles, there are plenty of options! Ask Mary if you need recommendations ;)
Barton Springs Municipal Pool
Beautiful spring-fed natural pool that's 68-70 degrees Fahrenheit year round. 10/10 people watching. Very popular on the weekends, so go early! Tickets are $9 for non-Austin residents.
Lady Bird Lake
We love paddleboarding here. You can rent a paddleboard or kayak at various spots around the lake. We like Rowing Dock.
Uptown Sports Club
One of our favorite restaurants on the east side. Don't miss the wedge salad!
Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar
Asian x BBQ fusion from two of the most famous chefs in Austin. Delicious food and chill vibes. This is where Travis first met Mary's parents :)
Better Half Coffee & Cocktails
Fun place to grab brunch. Mary's favorite post-half-marathon spot!
