Welcome to The Garage Gym 🤝🏻

Life's too short for shi**y gyms.

So, we made The Garage.

The Garage Gym Newsletter is:

-A resource for members to stay in the loop.
-A resource for potential members to learn what we're up to at The Garage Gym.

Let's see what November’s newsletter has in store.

Fitness around the 🌎

Events that inspire | Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run

Set in the rugged San Juan Moutains of Colorado, the Hardrock 100 covers 102.5 miles and climbs over 33,000 feet at elevations exceeding 12,000 feet.

Runners traverse ghost towns, old mining trails, high alpine passes, cross rivers and snowfields - all in a continuous loop.

Starting and ending in the mountain town of Silverton, Colorado.

There’s no ordinary finish line though…

participants physically “kiss the Hardrock” (a block of mining debris with a ram’s head on it) to mark their completion.
