Gym 1 is ~1.6 miles each way
Gym 2 is farther but it was like 1.3 miles each way from my old house ... I LOVED IT!
As long as the weather is nice, I usually ran & bladed to G2 ... No blading on busy streets for G1 lol Niether are 24 hour though ... I pay enough for them to be that's for sure.
Another reason for me to stay upstate! My complex has a new cardio and nautilus machines that are dusty and probably older than I am. The new gym is close to home, small but quiet. There are three locations and I use them all - especial the one that's about 1.5 miles away. This also happens to be the location who's niche is the slightly overweight 40 year old cardio whore... Which means no one is really dedicated or consistent. There are only a few familiar faces there every night. The equipment is all brand new (about a year old now) and so clean and you never fight for a bench or a weight.
