Broadway & Spring - SoHo

Dear Douchebag On the Treadmill Next To Me:

Why the hell are you wearing sunglasses inside, in a gym, working out?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Me.

Welcome to SoHo!  Hope you are ready to work out your legs cause you have three intimidating flights of highly lopsided, creaky, "reminds me of Alice In Wonderland falling down the rabbit hole but in reverse" stairs before you can enter.  I generally liked this location but it had a few...quirks.  It is large, all one level, bright, and had plenty of equipment.  The studio was large (cycling studio as well), decent sized weight room, and many additional weight machines scattered throughout.  Two small stretching areas, seemingly lots of cardio machines.

The clientele was interesting; mostly cafeteria worker kind of women -- a few cuties -- and the rest just Asian guys.  Plus me and the asshole with his glasses on the treadmill next to me (and no he wasn't blind).

The locker room was large, had plenty of showers, and was generally clean.  The rest of the facility, however, was kind of messy; particularly messy on such a quiet day.  Not dirty but messy.  Weights and medicine balls, barbells and dumbbells scattered throughout on the floor.  Also, some of the equipment was broken which always adds an inconvenience to the workout.

My grade: B+
