Seeking running groups/buddy, gym and personal training Zurich

Hi

Very recently moved to Zurich, please can you kindly help with the following: (all suggestions from a single to many welcomed, thank you!)

1.Running groups / buddy: details of groups, directions to running trails. Or anyone just interested in joining me on a relaxed run?

2. Gym: recommendations for a gym with English speaking classes and/or a pilates studio. Even better perhaps there are other outdoor sport/exercise options?

3. Personal Trainer: English speaking trainer, the cost may be prohibitive but thought I’d enquire


Even whilst apartment hunting figure if I get my exercise sorted it’ll help me to start feeling more settled. J

Thanks very much for responding, appreciated!

SJ

Hiya - we used to have a Wednesday evening jogging group in downtown ZH, but apathy seeped in. You can PM ME for details of other things we do as our group doesn't always post to the EF calendar.

1. Hi, you guys might be interested in the Wednesday evening jogging group in downtown Zurich, to me they look like a bunch of active folks.

2. Occasionally you'll find some alpine hikes and easier hikes posted on the calendar as well, this is a nice outdoor exercise and scenery gazing route to fitness.

3. As for personal trainers and gyms I hope someone will post info.

A few of us are meeting tonight in Zürich at the Enge train station at 6:30. It's posted on the EF calendar and we'd love to have more people along.

Re: Seeking running groups/buddy, gym and personal training Zurich

I went into Holmes place a couple of days ago as I'd bought a trial membership online. Turns out the membership guy is English. Some of the classes are taught by English instructors. The rest you tell the instructor at the beginning of the session and they will repeat everything in English. They also have pilates lessons on top of the usual classes.
