Healthy Start to the New Year

January 14, 2025 at 09:47pm. Views: 207

As we kick off 2025, and the local gyms get busier than ever with people aiming to fulfill their resolutions, I’m excited to share a few alternate opportunities to help you and your family start 2025 on a healthy and positive note, and keep the drive alive throughout the year. 

 

Whether you want to explore our beautiful city, connect with your neighbors, or have fun, we’ve got something for everyone!

 

Starting on January 25, our Hike to the Top program is back for those who love the great outdoors! Take in the breathtaking views from Box Springs Mountain, Lake Perris, or Hidden Springs. It’s your chance to reconnect with nature and start the year off on the right foot—pun intended. Our city parks and trails are always open for exploring, so grab your sneakers and enjoy the fresh air. 

 

If you’re ready to hit the ground running (literally!), save the date for our Fun Color Run happening on November 15. While this event is still several months out, it’s the perfect way to get active while adding a splash of color to your day and something to look forward to. And why not start building up to the Run’s 2-mile distance now, or work up to being able to challenge your personal time in last year’s event?

 

And if fitness is one of your New Year’s resolutions, we’ve got you covered. Check out our Conference and Recreation Center, located at 14075 Frederick Street, offering something for everyone. From fitness classes to sports leagues for all ages, we have you covered. 

I encourage you to take advantage of all that Moreno Valley has to offer this year. 

 

Here’s to a healthy and exciting start to 2025!

 

 

A medida que iniciamos el año 2025 y los gimnasios locales están más ocupados que nunca con personas que buscan cumplir sus propósitos, me complace compartir algunas oportunidades alternativas para ayudarlo a usted y a su familia a comenzar el año 2025 con una nota saludable y positiva, y mantener vivo el impulso durante todo el año. 

 

Ya sea que desee explorar nuestra hermosa ciudad, conectarte con tus vecinos o divertirte, ¡tenemos algo para todos!

 

¡A partir del 25 de enero, nuestra programa Hike to the Top está de regreso para aquellos que aman el aire libre! Disfrute de las impresionantes vistas desde Box Springs Mountain, Lake Perris o Hidden Springs. Es tu oportunidad de reconectarte con la naturaleza y comenzar el año con el pie derecho (nunca mejor dicho). Los parques y senderos de nuestra ciudad siempre están abiertos para explorar, así que toma tus zapatillas y disfruta del aire fresco.

 

Si está listo para empezar a correr, reserve la fecha para nuestra Fun Color Run que tendrá lugar el 15 de noviembre. Si bien aún faltan varios meses para este evento, es la manera perfecta de mantenerse activo mientras agrega un toque de color a su dia y algo que esperar. ¿Y por qué no empezar a aumentar la distancia de 2 millas de la carrera ahora, o trabajar para poder desafiar tu tiempo personal en el evento del año pasado?

 

Y si el fitness es uno de sus propósitos de Año Nuevo, lo tenemos cubierto. Visite nuestro Centro de conferencias y recreación, ubicado en 14075 Frederick Street, que ofrece algo para todos. Desde clases de fitness hasta ligas deportivas para todas las edades, lo tenemos cubierto. 

 

Los animo a aprovechar todo lo que Moreno Valley tiene para ofrecer este año. 

 

 

¡Por un comienzo saludable y emocionante para el año 2025!
