ABOUT CINDERFIT

During the pandemic, a few friends were determined to maintain their exercise routines even though gyms were closed and home fitness equipment was sold out.

With some cinder blocks they had in their backyards, the workout buddies discovered that cinder blocks could be used for a myriad of different exercises. The CinderFit workout was born, and more and more people started to join the weekly meetups.

WHERE

Located at the chic architecturally designed Paseo within THesis Hotel Miami, a communal gathering space located at the intersection of Coral Gables, South Miami, and Coconut Grove. After class, unwind and recharge at Mamey Restaurant.

Bring your own yoga mat!

Parking is available in the parking garage entrance through US1 or PaybyPhone across the street from the hotel entrance. Parking will be around $3-10 with these options depending on duration of stay.

Supporters of the WBHI 7th Annual Pink Walk can also participate virtually in the 5K Run and Walk around their neighborhood, or at the park, beach, or other convenient outdoor location.

All participants are also empowered to play an active role in helping to transform and save lives by setting up a personal fundraising page. Special swag will be awarded when participants raise $50, $100, and more, helping WBHI get to its $100,000 goal.

Proceeds will benefit the Women’s Breast & Heart Initiative for its grassroots community services including early detection, health education, care coordination and patient navigation.

On-site participants at Pink Walk will have special access to order a pre-sale voucher, with just their vehicle tag number on-hand, for the beautifully designed WBHI designated license plate that supports Disease Prevention & Early Detection, flbreasthealth.com/licenseplate.

Upon production, the specialty license plate will provide increased education and awareness relating to early detection, prevention, and screening of breast and heart issues.
