Hi Folks,

Wondering if anyone knows of a decent gym near Northwestern Memorial Hospital? I don’t know the area very well and will be out for a few days and like to be able to run a couple times. (And, no, I’m not going to run outside in your FRIGID weather. )

Thanks for any info!

Rob

Are you looking for a guest pass? Staying at a hotel? Chillin' at the hospital for a few days?

There's a few in the area...there's an Equinox at 900 N. Michigan which isn't too far from NMH. And FFC has a location in the 1000 block of North Clark. Plus there's a crunch over on Grand and Wabash. And at 333 E. Ontario there is a Lakeshore Athletic Club.

I don't head east of Michigan Ave very often, but I believe there's a few others tucked over in the streeterville area. I'm pretty sure there

Hopefully when you're here it won't be too frigid. You're really close to the path at NMH and it'd be great to get outside for at least one run along the lake.

I actually work across the street from the hospital...so hopefully you enjoy the area. It's pretty nice and there's lots to do. Let me know if you need any recommendations or anything!

Thanks for the reply. I’ll be staying with my sister, who also lives right across the street (East Erie, I think) from the hospital. She’s new to the area, and very much consumed with her partner being in the hospital, so I don’t want to ask her to investigate.

I’ll be there from 3/7 – 3/10 and would like to hit the mill on Sat and Mon mornings-a day pass, I guess.

Check out lakeshore...lsac.com, I think. They have a club right near NMH. You could probly easily get a pass for a day or 2.

IfWhere are you coming from? Check with your club, they may have a deal/reciprocity with something round here.

Call ahead to the hospital too, they have lots of services for families---may be able to get you into something onsite or close by (they have lots of hotel relationships too).

I checked the Lakeshore site and they have a facility (Onterie) less than a half-mile away.

Thanks again!
