February Fitness

     Daniel Island was named again as a Top 100 Golf Community by Travel + Leisure Magazine in its January/February issue.

     Golf is in the air. The International Junior Golf Tournament will be held at the Kiawah Island Resort Golf Course on the 13th-16th of this month.

     The Save the Light Run will be held on Folly Beach on the 7th and the 8K for H2O will be held there on the 21st.

     This is a great way to get warmed up for the Cooper River Bridge Run coming up in April and the After the Bridge Run Bike Ride the next day. That’s right you can spend a Saturday morning with 30,000 of your closest friends cruising the Ravenel Bridge on foot. Then get up the next morning and join the Coastal Cyclists on their Century Ride. Actually you have a choice of a 30, 50, 73 or the whopping 100 mile ride. And don’t forget the First Annual Stiletto Stampede to benefit the MUSC Children’s Hospital on March 21st kicking off Charleston Fashion Week. The $10,000 purse for this run will certainly get your attention even if the footwear doesn’t. This event will provide lots to talk about at work on Monday, especially with its $1,000 Best Costume prize.

      Mark you calendars now for possibly the most important, but fun day of the year. Oblique, our local fitness magazine, will present the 2009 Fitness Expo on April 25th at North Charleston’s Riverfront Park. Group fitness demos with Les Mills Body Flow and Body Jam, Tae Bo, Double Dutch Jump Rope, a kayak paddle, Kettle bells and Boot camps. There’s even a 5 hour 100 Bike Spin Marathon to benefit Louie’s Kids.  There’s lots to do for adults and kids alike. More information is available at www.ObliqueFitnessExpo.com
