As usual, running Bay to Breakers was a blast, even though I didn't realize either of my goals, which were to: (1) keep up with my brother, and (2) go the whole race without walking, including Hayes Street Hill. Still, it was fun.
Love b2b!!!! Best day of the year in CA! Soo much fun!!!!
Prior to seeing it on Yelp, I had not heard of this event so that means this was all new to me and I had a very vague idea of what to expect. I walked along with some of the other Yelpers in that sweet red cape with the severe balloonage. It certainly was interesting to see all the sights and sounds, oh and sights again all along the way to the end. And yes, we totally made it to the end (Rob, CeCe, and Marc) then ran off to go find food.
This location has a large number and variety of classes. I always get a great workout here. Also, the free parking is a big plus! My only complaint is that the roof and rooftop tennis court is no longer open to members.
This is a review for the gym itself and my trainer Robbie. I have been coming to the location for over a year now. It's spacious, clean, got a good size swimming pool, jacuzzi, and have free parking in a garage. They keep it very clean, and I always see people wiping equipment and even the wall!
Great place to join a drop-in tennis class. $30 for a 90 minute class filled with drills.
Perfect place to have a game of tennis or two with your friends. Love the scenery.
Great Location! I come here with my buddies to enjoy a over all work out & also a nice scenery!!
You know, some people look at this race, and all they can see is stupid drunken lameness. I look at Bay to Breakers and see all that, but I also see...
My friends and I wait for this annually.It's one of those amazing CA traditions where you remember just how come you're swooning in love with this damned city by the bay.
I've lived in the city basically all my life without participating in one and finally decided to run since it was their 100th anniversary, they were giving away medals, I'd get my name and race time in the paper (15 seconds of fame), and finally to see what all the hype was about.
This year I went to my first Toluca Lake Tennis and Fitness Club. We didn't start at the beginning of the race and we didn't finish at the end, but we did have 20ish people dressed as a circus pushing a keg in a shopping cart dressed as a circus tent.
I am updating this as Crunch Jamacha has begun to upgrade the torn padding on most of the equipment. There is still much to do but I do see progress.
