You can work out with Aly Raisman this weekend
If you’ve ever dreamed of working out alongside Olympic gymnast (and Needham native) Aly Raisman but can’t stay on a balance beam to save your life, you’re in luck.
Raisman will be on hand at the Jimmy Fund Fit Fest (presented by Reebok), which is taking over the DCR Memorial Hatch Shell on Saturday starting at 8 a.m.
The Fit Fest is a one-day outdoor exercise festival where participants can learn from professional trainers while raising money for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
“Join me for a fitness-filled day to support an amazing cause at the Jimmy Fund Fit Fest,” Raisman said in a press release. “Like so many others, my family has been affected by cancer, and I am excited to team up with the Jimmy Fund to make an impact in Dana-Farber’s important mission to conquer cancer.”
Participants must meet a fundraising minimum of $175, and registration for the event itself is $10, or $5 if you use the code “STRETCH” at registration. Along with classes from Boston-area trainers in disciplines like Crossfit, yoga, bootcamp, and dance, participants will get breakfast, lunch, snacks from sponsors, as well as a Reebok T-shirt and a Junk headband.
