MPRD Hosting Gulf Coast Fitness Palooza This Weekend

The Mobile Parks and Recreation Department (MPRD) is bringing a variety of fitness experts to the heart of downtown Mobile this weekend to help promote personal health and fitness. The Gulf Coast Fitness Palooza will showcase a variety of fitness disciplines, including step and cardio aerobics, yoga, crew fitness, Zumba, duathlon, CrossFit and more. There will also be food trucks and a dedicated Kid’s Zone. It will take place in Mardi Gras Park from 6 to 8 p.m. on March 15 and 7 a.m. to noon on March 16. Hopes are that the event is an engaging way to learn about new fitness disciplines and find a healthy activity that fits attendees’ interests and abilities. This free community event is open to the public, but registration is required. Walk-up registration ends 30 minutes before the first event of each day.
