More than a hot shopping destination: Keep fit with CITYCENTRE's fun runs, rides and classes
It's easy to think of CITYCENTRE as only a fabulous shopping destination — and with good reason.
The chic mixed-use development has premier boutiques that will make both men and women fashionistas salivate at the sight of on trend jackets from Dryden Kreps and stylish accessories from Elaine Turner. Cash or charge?
But CITYCENTRE knows that just as important as looking great on the outside is feeling ecstatic on the inside, something that's achieved with the many fitness opportunities that are held in this West Houston locale.
This is when we suggest — after watching the video above that features interviews with Cathy Knauss of Life Time Athletic, Bevello boutique manager Annie Georgen and Child Advocates special events manager Kelly Goth — that you grab your calendar or favorite electronic toy and save the dates for happenings suitable for the health-conscious consumer.
That would be you.
