Some Healthy Competition

Ever since Lifetime Fitness moved to town, the folks running the Columbia Association's gyms seem to have stepped up their game, offering longer hours, new equipment and other amenities. The latest, according to the Sun, is to bring in some small franchises. At the Columbia Gym, they've opened a Maui Wowi Hawaiian offering smoothies and specialty coffees (and run by Tessa Goldscher, a former event planner in town). Coming to the Supreme Sports Club is a Seattle's Best coffee bar.
