I was thinking on the ride home tonight that winter is definitely here. It’s that special time of year when you finish your commute feeling like your finger tips are going to freeze off. That or your toes. I tend to alternate between frozen fingers or frozen toes. Never both.

So, to keep up the pace a little through the chilly season, here are a few things to keep you in shape (and warm)

Herriott Sports Performance

Herriott Sports Performance has just opened a new location in Fremont located between the Fremont bridge and Seattle Pacific University at the 101 Nickerson Business Park, suite 150.

Parking is available for cars and bikes, easily accessible by the Burke-Gilman trail or by Hwy 99.

The new facility boasts a cycling studio for efficient power-based training, indoor swim conditioning, strength and conditioning classes classes for endurance athletes, and is across the street from the SPU track for track work-outs.

Additional services provided by HSP include coaching services, personal strength and conditioning consulting, VO2 testing, lactate threshold testing, training zone creation, and many more.

Cycle University

Another great option is to try out an Indoor Time Trial (I wrote about these awhile ago) from Cycle U. They do them on Wednesdays and have four heats going from 5pm-8pm. It’s a great time of the week to get in a workout. They’re located just off of Sand Point way in Magnuson park in the same building that Cascae Bicycle Club headquarters are. 7400 Sand Point Way NE #101S (formerly building 138)
