For the rest of the week, the temperature in Chapel Hill won't go above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Oh, and we could be looking at another snow day Monday.
It’s hard to keep your New Year’s resolution of staying fit when it’s 30 degrees and super windy outside, but Campus Recreation has you covered.
Go to the gym
The Student Recreation Center and Rams Head Recreation Center are open starting at 6 and 9 a.m., respectively. Both close at midnight (except on Fridays, they close at 9 and 11 p.m., respectively).
No matter your class or work schedule, the gyms are open and ready for you. If you’re just getting back into the swing of things and don’t want to face "gymtimidation," they are particularly empty in the early morning and late night hours. If you want to show off being back in the gym, head in around lunch and dinner time and it’ll feel like you’re standing in the middle of the Pit.
Pick-up in Woollen
When it’s particularly frigid outside, head to Woollen Gym for some sweaty, non-AC workout time. Almost every weekday night, you can grab some friends or go alone and join in on any of the six half-court basketball pick-up games.
Exercise classes
Group fitness classes are the right mix of fun and challenging. Yoga, Zumba, Cycle, Barre, Absolution and honestly any other type of class you can think of happen almost every hour at every Campus Recreation location. Many classes are taught by fellow UNC students and unless you want to go to a Cycle class, you don’t need to sign up beforehand.
