The Event
“Rock On The Green” And Enjoy A Day Of Inclusive Health And Fitness With Club One And Barney & Barney, Benefiting Challenged Athletes Foundation. This inspiring team is putting together a day of fitness fun on Saturday, September 12, 2009 for individuals, families, and athletes all! This first-ever event at San Francisco’s beautiful Marina Green (overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge) will include a high energy 3 hour spin-a-thon / Krank-a-thon as well as both 2K and 5K family fun walks. This rockin’ event is already attracting Bay Area residents with a passion for health, fitness, fun and great music!
The theme of inclusive fitness is key, as the goal of “Rock on the Green” is to provide an opportunity for able and disabled people to participate side-by-side in events solely focused on spinning, walking, Kranking and being together! In addition to the different movement events, “Rock on the Green” will feature activities for the whole family including kid-friendly events, expo booths and more. The best part is that all participants will be helping others to join in fitness and fun by raising money and awareness for the CAF.
For our spinners and Krankers, we will have over 100 spin bikes, up to 80 Krankcycles, and some of the best spin instructors in the world (including Johnny G, the creator of spinning). Our 2K and 5K walks are estimated to attract up to 1000 walkers. The goal is to show the Bay Area and the world that the day of “inclusive fitness” is here…all people experiencing the energy of moving together.
Donations
Funds raised at Rock on the Green benefit the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). CAF raises money to help people with physical challenges pursue active lifestyles through physical fitness and athletics. CAF's mission is clear: give those with the desire to live active, competitive lifestyles every opportunity to compete in the sports they love.
