Gyms

[Kilmainham]

Hello, I was wondering if there are any pay as you go gyms in Kalkan? I wouldn't normally ask such a question as I head off on holidays but I clearly lost my mind recently and signed up for a half marathon. I'd like to try and do some "running" whilst I'm in Kalkan, but think the hills and the heat will prevent me from outdoor jogs!

Yes there is a well equipped gym behind the Yali supermarket.

My BH and son have both joined the gym whilst we've been in Kalkan - there's only one.

You can join for one week, two, three or a month - prices are on the website.
They have treadmills and its air-conditioned (sometimes..)

Thanks all! I'll probably spend most of holiday trying to persuade myself to go and feeling guilty at not going !

My BH is an early riser, so would go first thing whilst I was still asleep. Our son used to go around midday to get out of the fierce August heat. As you know with gyms, its all about routine
BH and I go for a daily walk (read..trek ) whilst we are in Kalkan and often see joggers/runners on our journey. The terrain certainly lends itself to hill training 
We did a half marathon a couple of years ago about a month after a Kalkan trip and I found the walking just improved my all round fitness and stamina.
Good luck with your run (and training..)

I made a valiant effort on Saturday evening to go to the gym, sadly they appeared closed at 6.30 rather than the 8-8 they had assured me were the opening hours. I ran up and down some hills for a bit.  Monday morning I shall arise with good intentions and wander down again !
