🥊 Put ’Em Up
3rd Street Boxing is bringing back its Evening Bootcamp starting Monday. The four-week program will include everything you need to kickstart your training — think high-intensity cardio drills, punch-jab combos, and so much more. Beginners are welcome (and encouraged!) to join, so whether you’ve been thinking about getting into the ring or just want to step up your game, this is your chance!

🚫 Car-Free Commute
It’s no secret that Market Street around the Financial District can be an extremely nerve-wracking place for bikers no matter what time of day it is. Well, in an attempt to make the area safer and easier to navigate for everyone, the city recently voted to redesign the popular street. The result? A 2.2-mile stretch that is entirely car-free and sidewalk-level bike lanes. The first phase of construction is planned to begin sometime in 2020, so we can thankfully expect to see some changes very soon.

🤘 Rok Out
BodyROK Petaluma knows hitting up a weekday workout can be a struggle, so to make things easier, they’re testing out a new class time. Starting today, the Reformer Pilates studio is adding a Thursday night, 7:10pm sweat session to their schedule. Book your spot and get ready for a full-body muscle burn.

🛩Airport Eats
The Bay Area’s Sidewalk Juice is expanding, opening its third location in SFO sometime next year. Soon enough, you’ll be able to enjoy a Kale Colada Smoothie, a Sweet Greens Juice, or an acai bowl before boarding your flight. Fitt Tip: their Valencia St. location recently went through a remodel, so be sure to stop by and get reacquainted with their menu before the airport location arrives.

It’s sure to be the plant-based event of the season, so get your tickets before they sell out!

North Face Endurance Challenge Training Camp
If you’re thinking about signing up for the North Face Endurance Challenge this year, you’ll want to make sure to prepare with this awesome training camp. On Saturday, you’ll head out on a 14- or 21-miles course, both of which start at Muir Beach. The next day, you’ll see the first and last parts of the race when you run from the Golden Gate Bridge Parking Lot and onward to Tennessee Valley and back. After all this, you’ll get a (free!) 16-week training plan and invite to their Facebook group as an extra resource for race day.
