Look Closer
Get In Shape

Wandering the streets of SF, and its beaches, we noticed in general the population does not seem to suffer from a lot of "out of shape" fatness. Fitness seems to be a focus with a lot of the folks (as it was for this one person I noticed working out at Cressy Field).
Perhaps in conjunction, while there are beaucoup eating places in SF, there is a lack of fast-food outlets in the downtown and tourist areas, compared with other places we've visited. No McD, no KFC, no pizza delivery places everywhere. We wondered, Is this a contributing factor to the fitness?
Again, by chance one day we discovered the real reason that people in SF seem to get in shape, and stay that way... people are willing to do what it takes. Bravo to this young woman doing beach push-ups.
