Bootids is one such meteor shower, and it generally occurs in June every year as the Earth moves through the tail of the 7P/Pons-Winnecke comet. For 2025, the best night to catch a potential glimpse of Bootids is this Friday, June 27. It isn't an easy meteor shower to spot. Its "radiant" -- the point in the sky from which the meteor shower appears to originate -- is in the constellation Boötes (

While hard to believe, there was, in fact, a time when a hard workout or a weekend long run didn’t end with a session in Normatec Legs or a bout with a massage gun. But in 2025, athletes of all ranges, from pro to amateur level, and in nearly every sport, have made recovery a key component of their training.
