Let’s Take A Run!
We’re catching every non rainy, September day Charleston has to offer and adding a walk/run in Hampton Park to our routines before stepping across the street for our Pilates sessions!
There is nothing we love more than being on the corner of Hampton Park. The park adds so many extra opportunities for moving, from walking to running, roller blading to bike riding, and even valuable time spent outdoors sitting and reading or catching up on phone calls with loved ones. And it’s right in the middle of downtown Charleston — how perfect!
