F45 has been a huge part of my husband's life for the past year. He'd go to F45 and I'd go to my…read moregym and we'd chat afterward and compare. I started to feel like I was missing out. My workouts were intense but I had plateaued and was constantly injured. I also missed the social aspect of a gym community, something I felt was lacking at my gym. For my husband's birthday, all he asked for was for me to come try his gym. I did my week free trial, convinced I would miss something from my current routine. Spoiler - I didn't. It was such a great experience, I canceled my gym and joined F45. I was most impressed all the trainers knew me, my goals, and my limitations nearly immediately. Since joining, we completed the F45 Challenge with great results. It's so much easier to share this with my husband and the friends I've made at F45. Working out is enjoyable again and I couldn't be happier to be a part of the F45 Family.

I thought the classes were pricey for the area at $16 a class, but they do offer pay what you can community classes. According to their website they designed their studio environmentally green including using only "non-petroleum soy candles". Music is played during class which is nice. The studio has high ceilings and tall windows, but really only comfortably fits about 15 people practicing at once, but they can squeeze in 45 or so with mats 3 inches apart from each other. They have a store in the front with lots of books, dvds, and clothing. With a name like Blue Lotus I was expecting to see a blue wall somewhere or a lotus candle, something that plays on their name in the decor, but I think they were going for a white space with minimal decor. The students that come here are all very friendly and chat with each other.

And now my muscles are making sure I'm acutely aware of those poses. Carrington wasn't afraid to adjust pretty much everyone in her class, and I have to admit her adjustments were just about perfect. The studio is off the beaten path, and parking was sparse. There is only one bathroom and no other changing area, so get there early if you need to change. But the space is perfect for yoga. Not pretentious, but still clean, spacious, and inviting. Definitely check out Blue Lotus, and I highly recommend Carrington's class, especially if you have a decent practice or just want your butt kicked. Your muscles may hate you the next couple of days, but you'll be proud of yourself after that :)

The 3-mile loop gave me the perfect mix of cardio, scenery, and just enough challenge to keep things interesting. The trail is mostly paved and very well maintained, but there are also a few off-road paths if you want to switch things up. The lake views are gorgeous throughout the walk, and the heavily wooded sections make it feel peaceful and shaded even on warmer days. I also appreciated that the trail has a few solid uphill stretches. I'd say it's ideal for intermediate walkers, runners, or cyclists looking for a scenic challenge without venturing into hardcore hiking territory. The only downside is the parking situation, which can get pretty tight during busy hours. Still, once you're on the trail, it's absolutely worth it. Raleigh really lucked out with this gem of a park.

Perfect for families and small children. You can access the beach on Creedmoor Rd. This was the perfect place for a convenient beach day 4th of July weekend. It saved me the 4 hour trip to Bear Island. I arrived early around 10:30 a.m. and there were no crowds. We camped out near the showers and bathrooms. This park is perfectly lined with trees in abundance. Perfect for barbecuing. We enjoyed our morning picnic and the water was very relaxing. I appreciate how clean the sand area was and the garbage was well organized as well. I brought my mother who is 72 and I had concerns about the proximity of the restrooms and showers and overall access. I was relieved to discover how convenient the beach access was for those with mobility impairment and disabilities. There are no pets allowed and no alcohol permitted. I watched the park rangers escort someone with a pit bull to the parking lot to return home and a woman was asked to dump out several beer cans. You have been warned. They run a tight ship here. I plan to return throughout the remainder of the summer months.

It's a large box, tons of space and equipment to accommodate the larger class sizes. Open gym had plenty of slots as well, so if you want to check out a crossfit gym, this is a good contender. The reason I did not stay though was simply that it was not a good fit for the type of gym I was looking for - and that's okay. That has no reflection on the rating I'm giving, it was just more serious than I was looking for. If that's your vibe, you'll probably enjoy this place, I just prefer something a lot more laid back. What I will take a start off for is due to a couple of members who were a bit rude to me for just working out near them. It's a big gym but when you need a rig, you go where's there's space, so that wasn't great. And there's a good amount of plates that are broken and beaten up, way more than any other gym I've been too. That isn't a reflection on the owners, but more so the members as multiple classes had the coach ask people not to drop the lighter plates and it would still happen, thus the cracking. Other than that, the coach was good, owner is very passionate about it which is great to see, still a good place to check out.
