Good Morning Colorado Workout

Red Rocks is perhaps one of the greatest assets we have in Denver, Colorado. The large outdoor ampitheater has been home to some of the coolest concerts and is also a great place to work out! I have gone to work out there a couple times with my friend Angie. There are individuals that have their headphones on as they jog down the stairs - or people doing yoga among the steps in the Colorado sunshine. But this last Saturday was perhaps one of the coolest things that I have been a party to.

Fitness On The Rocks is the brainchild of Alex Chapman, who I used to know when we worked at 24 Hour Fitness together. He brings together all different kinds of workouts from full body, to body combat, to zumba and more. Then tells all his friends, all of Denver and they tell their friends.

The final result? Over 8,600 people waking up to a Colorado sunrise doing a mass work-out together. Yes indeed. Colorado is a healthy state. I am glad I was a part of this.


As for next year, I would love to help him make it a bigger deal. Let's really get Colorado out there moving. There were workouts for everyone from the fitness enthusiast to the person who is just beginning their fitness journey (and for some of them just getting up the stairs to the theater was a big workout). Will you join me? I will save you a place right next to me next year!
