Fleet Feet Sports in Delray Beach has launched a new Summer Sizzlers fitness program, dedicated to keep people moving and fit during the hot South Florida summer months. It’s also a way for local people of all ages to meet fitness-minded peers and get acquainted to local gyms, exercise studios and more.
Summer Sizzlers started June 1 and ends July 31. Don’t fret that it has already started—there’s still time to get involved. In fact, people can join at any point for a full summer, one-time fee of $50 a person.
Here’s how the program works:
Those who join can participate in an average three to four free events each week, anchored by a Monday evening group run of any distance, starting at Fleet Feet Sports Delray Beach (1705 S. Federal Highway, Delray Beach). The runs include training programs and exclusive Fleet Feet Sport discounts, as well as refreshments on run courses. Runners learn about proper form, fueling, pacing, stretching and more.
Each weekend a different “guest” gym will host the Sizzlers for a 20-30 minute workout highlighting each facility’s approach to fitness. These guests gyms include: Slash Fitness in Delray Beach, OrangeTheory Fitness Delray Beach (which already had its event) and Gravity + Oxygen in Boca.
To get a sense for the weekend events: The one with OrangeTheory, in early June, involved a one-mile run from Fleet Feet Sports Delray Beach to OrangeTheory Fitness Delray Beach; a 20-minute row/strength workout at OrangeTheory; and then a mile run back to Fleet Feet.
Participants get points for attending events that are coordinated and sponsored by Fleet Feet Sports and its partners.
Each event has a different point value attached to it. And points can be traded for prizes from Fleet Feet Sports and its partners at the end of summer.
“For us, Summer Sizzlers serve as an opportunity to bring a lot of our local friends and Fleet Feet Sports customers together and expose them to new fitness trends and facilities in the area,” Fleet Feet Sports Delray Beach owner Nick Stump says. “I’m really excited to offer new and unique opportunities for the community to work out, get fit, have fun and win prizes!”
