There are plenty of good gyms around cork. Check out Leisure world in Bishopstown and Knocknaheeney. There are also decent gyms in any of the hotles about the place. The planet aswell by blackpool is meant to be pretty good

cheers mate,just curious though i'm staying at a travelodge at Black Ash
Kinsale Road Roundabout, Frankfield Road any gyms located near there?

Thats a fair bit out man....dunno if the hotel up in the airport has a gym or not. Your nearest bet other than that would be town (city centre) which would be the locker room on washinton street. Togher is near the kinsale road round about so you could check there for gyms. Its a bit of a hole tho!

If your out there at the kinsale road round about the closest and easiest to get to i reckon would be leisureworld in bishopstown. U'd get there in like 5mins cuz its just straight out dual carriageway and there'd be no hassle with parking and all as as there would in the city.

it's only 2 miles out according to google map that's nothing for me,i walk more than that most days,even from there though would it be easy enough to get taxis whenever we need them?

ya i suppose it would be. U probably wouldn't flag down any like, u have to call them but ya in a taxi u'd be into the city in like 5mins or less even

Sorry Mr Eddie Vedder (if its really you Ten And Vs are wicked cheers) , don't know why no one has mentioned the Mardyke Arena to you. Its the Athletics Track/ Gym next to UCC. All the top quality machines you could ever need. Very direct route from Frankfield to the Mardyke ("motorway" from one to the other like). Just hit it up on Google Maps.
