Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.
If you've been eyeing that blurb we published last week about our Hottest 2012 contest we're soon closing the call for entries. The time is now to enter a personal trainer you know or enter yourself if you work as a fitness guru. Giddyup ladies & gents, and happy Friday. [The Management]
