I was there for a meeting once and it is a fabulous facility. The lodges are a perfect idea for the woods behid the building! I would LOVE to have the opportunity to stay there and work out in the facility.

If I had still lived in Grandview, MHHC would have been my choice for a gym, as a friend of mine used to belong there. But I know that I need a gym close by. And so Lifetime was a better fit.

Other than that, I would love to win this, obviously!!

What a cool idea! I have never heard of anything like this. But it sounds like a great idea. Something to ease people into the idea of living a healthier life style, but at a comfortable pace. I would definitely drive to Columbus for this, especially if it would mean I get to meet you too :)

(is email in the form good enough?)

oh i also wanted to say i would like to take my boyfriend on this trip. he keeps saying he wants to get back into a healthy routine but he has fallen far from it because of long work hours and getting out of the habit of exercising. i think this would benefit him way more than me, but i would like to share it with him.

awww the contest is only for locals??? i mean i would totally take a trip for a weekend retreat like that. if it is open to out-of-staters that i want to enter :)

i think this kind of option is awesome for a health-focused getaway. on my life to-do list i have health-retreat at the top!!!!

i have seen things like this before, like the canyon ranch in lenox, MA, but they are super expensive. i mean, obvi worth it. it is something i would save for. i would love to spend an entire weekend in a lodge like this, sort of finding a balance and investing in myself.

Obviously I can’t enter since I’m in California but I had to comment because that is so cool! What a fun opportunity!

That is really interesting! Like you, I had no idea there was a gym there open to non-patients, let alone lodges and couples’ retreat packages.

Awww Monica, I should have mentioned that the contest is for locals. Unless you want to make the drive up to Columbus!
