How far is your gym from your home each way?

Just wondering how far everyone's gym is from their home.   I tend to use that as an excuse as to why I'm not going.......

mine is less than ten minutes each way.  it's on my university campus, and my membership is part of my student fees.  it's a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility with an indoor track, two indoor soccer pitches, olympic-sized pool, hot pools, squash courts, everything you could possibly want.

i've never been.  i'd rather be outside.

15 miles / 20 minutes one way.  But it's well worth it!

Technically, I live in mine since I mostly work out at home, but sometimes I head in to the university gym which is half an hour or so away.

My YMCA is about 3.5 miles; driving there takes about 5 minutes. My favorite places to run are all within a 10-15 minute drive. I can't run on roads anymore but getting to the parks is easy!

Well, the actual gym that I pay dues to is about 35 minutes away.  Then there is a crappy smelly coop gym in town, about 3 minutes away, but the machines are often broken.  And then there is home, with my workout videos!  I usually go to the real gym about 3 days a week, but this winter, I've been working out more at home to avoid the slick roads.

Mine's about a 15-20 minute drive both ways, depending on if I take the scenic route or not. lol

Downstairs.

Just across the street. I have no excuses.

Maybe 1/4 of a mile one way.  I tend to jog there unless my husband is working out with me.  He's the lazy one who want to drive 'all that way'!!    I only drive if it's particularly nasty out.

about 3 blocks away...less than a 5 minute drive...i work there too so the membership is free...so basically i have NO excuse not to go.....

The dojo where I teach is one mile away...so I run there and back.

and my gym is three miles away...and I run there and back with a weighted vest on....but not all the time, because it's like running with a small child on your back for 6 miles....lol

By the way..I see that your birthday is coming up...happy birthday....even though i don't know you...lol...coltsmom....cute kid too.

I have two.  One is 15 minutes away (maybe 6 or 7 miles) and the other is in my office building.  Yet somehow, I'm less consistent with the one that's just a few floors below me every workday.

A half a mile.  I always run there and back, then I can take 10 minutes off my workout!  It's really great to live in a walkable neighborhood.

Mine is about a 10 minute walk or so, I do a walk/jog combo almost every day and I also do exercises on my exercise ball a few times a week too!

Wow, Love this question. Mine is 15 miles/20 minutes away and in the opposite of work which is 15 miles the other way. It is really hard and expensive on gas, but I go 4 -5 times a week.

I have to schedule it in! (Moved outto country for love so this is whatyou get I guess!)

I am going to try this week another gym that is near to work but more expensive. I am doing it because I want to try Spinning, but it will involve alot of coordination to get myself ready to go to the gym/and or work after or before a sweaty workout. Plus making sure my son is where he needs to be and awake for school, etc, etc.

Guys have it so easy!

Half a flight of stairs away.

I work for a university, so I started going to the university gym. It is 1 block from my office, and about a 15 minute walk from my apartment. I have been going right after work. Now I have no excuses!

It took me years to finally break down and go to the gym - I had been trying to work out at home, but it was kind of limited given my apartment's shoe box-like dimensions. Running outside hasn't been working lately either, since the sidewalks have been covered in ice, and the dudes who hang out at the park tend to hassle me.
