What runners highlight
“The fitness area is well-equipped with a great variety of machines and free weights, making it easy to get a full workout in.”
“We even brought a friend along, and my son mentioned that the practices are especially interesting because he doesn’t like routine or repetitive drills.”
“Helpful staff, lots of parking, free qijong and yoga class to members, next to Bethany Lakes park that are wonderful paved walking path.”
From the reviews
…We tried out the walking track which I will provide a description for. It takes 17 laps to walk a mile. This tract is approximately the perimeter of the below basketball court. The corners have what I consider to be a rather small radius. The track's two lanes are rather narrow.
…I exercise 45 minutes then will get on the indoor track and walk 2 or 3 miles. Never have to wait for anything to finish my plans.
