There are many reasons that you should be incorporating yoga into your exercise regimen at our apartments in Boulder. It keeps you limber, it keeps you healthy, and it’s a great way to meet new and interesting people who share your same interests.

This summer, the Hanuman Festival will be taking place from June 13 to June 16, 2013. This festival of yoga, music, and enlightenment is one of the best yoga festivals in Boulder during the summer, and you definitely don’t want to miss out on the fun.

This event brings together some of the best yogis and experts in the country, including Richard Freeman and Rod Stryker, and it allows everyone from beginners to experts to learn everything they can about the benefits of yoga. Whether you need help with technique or integrating yoga into your exercise routine, this is the event for you.

In between yoga classes, you can take a break with tea, gluten-free foods, and other healthy eats from local restaurants and explore the Vendor Village for organic products, massages, and information from local studios. It all takes place less than 20 minutes from The Habitat Apartments.

You can register now or wait until the event to sign up. A three-day pass for the festival is $349, and it is worth every penny!

There are some fantastic races coming up this summer and fall. As any good runner knows, now’s the time to start preparing for the big day so that you’ll make it across the finish line with a top time.

These two Boulder races are the most popular in the area, and you won’t want to exclude them from you schedule because they are some of the most competitive races you will ever run:

1. The West End 3K will take place on June 5, 2013 at 6:00 pm. Runners will gather at 11th and Pearl Street and run around downtown before crossing the finish line right where they started. Afterward, you can take advantage of the awesome shopping, dining, and festivities that will fill the air.
2. The Boulder Stroke & Stride will be a swim and run contest that will take place on multiple Thursdays this summer. Each race starts at 6:00 pm, and competitors will meet at the Boulder Reservoir where they’ll don their shorts and give it a go.
