Health and food

Much to his credit, a retired Kennett friend has embarked on a new fitness program. He joined the Snap Fitness facility at the little strip mall east of Wal-mart and signed up for several sessions with a personal trainer. All is going well: he likes his trainer and certainly feels like he's getting a workout.
And he has an excellent motivation for exercising: he is a sociable fellow, and working out allows him to indulge in restaurant food more often.
For instance, on Saturday I had a craving for sushi and asked him to join me for lunch. Where do you want to go, I asked: Kyoto or Lily's (we like both)?
Kyoto, he said without hesitation. The reason: Snap Fitness is just a few doors down, so he'd be able to exercise after lunch.
What's funny is that the Snap Fitness gym in Avondale is also in a shopping center with a tasty sushi restaurant (Sake Hana). I wonder if that's in the location advice given to franchisees?
