My gym is closing!

[taratru]

DH said there were signs up this morning and he heard it was money related. I love my gym! It's only a mile from my house, the classes are good, there's a pool for DH, the clientele is awesome...and it was affordable. Grrrrr! What now???

I would die of my gym closed. Have you confirmed if they are closing or just being bought out? Sometimes they get bought out, update the equipment but you get to keep the same pay structure.

im so sad for you because i know how bummed id be if my gym closed

[taratru]

I just looked on the website. Closing. Last day for classes and child care is Tuesday and closing is Sunday at noon. Waaaaaaah!

I would definitely try a couple of different gyms before committing to one. I would take the free visit that most gyms offer and go from there. My gym is no frills and low maintenance but I picked it because of the different classes it offers and the childcare.

That sucks! I hope you can find another gym you love soon. At least it's summer so you can run outside for a few months

Wow, that's soon! Hope you find something else quickly!

The problem is that there aren't many options that are convenient with our schedules and kids. I know I will be okay with running on my own, but need the gym to keep me lifting.

That really sucks

Emergency telethon? That always works on TV.

I JUST saw this in the paper! I think my plan is a home-gym type of situation....But I'll miss the pool if I ever decide to do another tri...

Maybe its a sign that you should try something new? Are you interested in crossfit? Pilates?

OH! I didn't think about Cross-fit! (This was my gym too....) Sorry to hijack the post!

Nope. I'm interested in having options for my money. I can't bring myself to pay that for just one thing.
