ALAMEDA, Calif., March 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The North
Face is joining the free fitness movement by bringing Mountain
Athletics workouts to five cities across the country, and making it
that much easier to train for a goal. Beginning March 31, The North Face will host twice-weekly
free strength and conditioning workouts in Washington D.C., New
York, San Francisco,
Chicago and Boston.
The North Face is joining with November Project, the grassroots
fitness group spreading free workouts and high-fives wherever they
go, to invite athletes of all levels to set a goal and step up
their training with expertly designed sport-specific workouts.
Training events will be hosted Tuesdays and Thursdays in each city

Athletics App for iOS. Custom sport-specific training programs

rooted in The North Face unique outdoor heritage of setting goals,
pushing personal limits and having more fun outside. Workouts are
