As we enter an exciting year, many of us commit to a healthier lifestyle. There is no better city to visit than San Francisco to jump-start your New Year’s resolutions. In this issue, you’ll read about some of our fabulous restaurants that are committed to serving up healthy cuisine, plus a few local favorites perfect for burning off that Ghirardelli hot fudge sundae. San Francisco is also a city with many fascinating microclimates and terrains, which means there’s a perfect location for every activity and level. Enjoy an easy scenic walk around Dolores Park or get your heart pumping with a jog up the trails in the Presidio. Make sure to enjoy a fresh juice when you’re in town, and if your muscles get a bit sore, relax at one of the many day spas sprinkled throughout the city. Just ask your concierge about their favorite place and you are sure to be pampered. Happy New Year! Teresa Rodriguez Editor-in-Chief, San Francisco @WhereSF

“San Francisco's restaurants are very accommodating. You don't have to feel limited.” Q: What are the best ways to get active when visiting San Francisco?
A: Forget Uber, see the city on foot. Walking up Nob Hill, Russian Hill or the Filbert Street steps is a great workout! Get out of the city and head to Muir Woods for great hikes among the coastal redwoods.
HEROES, MISCHIEF AND MIRACLES—oh my! Everyone likes a good story, and Chinese culture has 5,000 years of them. Folk tales, legends and timeless classics make up this magical world of immortals and miracles. Dive into action-filled stories embodying the wisdom and virtues of ancient China with Shen Yun. Classical Chinese dance, with its distinct elegance, vividness and athleticism, is the perfect way to bring these stories to life. The dancers’ seamless interaction with grand animated backdrops puts you right inside the story. Along with dazzling costumes and enchanting music, guests are instantly taken to another time and place. Don’t miss Shen Yun Performing Arts at San Francisco War Memorial Opera House Dec. 31–Jan. 6. For ticket information, visit ShenYun.com or call 888.633.6999.

Q: Are there specific tours or activities you recommend for staying in shape on vacation?
A: Dandyhorse Bike ours offers gui e sightseeing tours. City unning ours offers a running partner who doubles as a tour guide. Rent bikes from the Fisherman’s Wharf area, ride over the Golden Gate Bridge and take the ferry back to San Francisco. Take a drop-in class at Barry’s Boot Camp, SoulCycle or the TRX Training Center. Q: Where should guests go for a healthy meal?
A: My go-to healthy eating restaurants are Mixt, Lemonade, Blue Barn, Little Gem and Greens— but San Francisco’s restaurant kitchens are very accommodating.
You don’t have to feel limited to a handful of restaurants! Q: Where can guests go for a day pass for fitness or wellness?
A: Planet Granite climbing gym is located in the Presidio, close to the Golden Gate Bridge. Kabuki Springs & Spa has hot and cold plunge pools in this traditional Japanese bathhouse (men and women use on alternating days of the week, Tuesdays are for all genders). Q: Any secrets you have for staying fit while visiting San Francisco?
A: Grace Cathedral has a yoga class ($10-$20 donations requested) on Tuesday evenings, BYO mat. This is a true San Francisco experience. BEST TIP See the city on foot. Just walking up Nob Hill, Russian Hill or the Filbert Street steps to take in the view is a great workout!

SUBTLY INCREASING daylight hours are a gentle nudge to remind us that it’s not too soon to begin shaping up for spring. Think beyond the ho-hum treadmill routine to ramp up your winter energy levels and take full advantage of brisk, sunny—and fogless—January days. Our City by the Bay is packed with outdoor activities that combine fitness and sightseeing. You’ll make your friends back East jealous, because as everyone in San Francisco knows, there are far nicer ways to exercise than shovelling snow. FIT FOR A DAY Just visiting? Some hotels have state-ofthe-art gyms like the brand new facility at Nob Hill’s Stanford Court, complete with cable car views. Other fitness venues may come as a surprise, such as Grace Cathedral, where all are welcome every Tuesday evening for yoga on the labyrinth. Throughout January, an art installation of 2,000 white paper doves soars overhead in the darkened cathedral as an instructor and a musician lead a nurturing hour-long yoga class for which a $10 or $20 donation is welcome. Go for intensive interval training at Barry’s Bootcamp, a fitness phenomenon that’s gathered strength for two decades. Newly open in the Castro District, one of their largest studios is surely one of the swankiest, and visitors are welcome on a drop-in basis.
FRESH AIR WALKS There’s no better time of year to indulge in the serenity of Muir Woods National Monument than when the giant redwood grove is devoid of crowds. Stick to the Main Trail along Redwood Creek or branch out onto one of the connecting trails for a longer day hike. Appreciate the redwoods’ majesty in a tranquil setting that’s only 11 miles from the northern end of the Golden Gate Bridge. Make sure to reserve parking in advance, as the shuttle bus only operates seasonally. (Also note there is no mobile or Wi-Fi connectivity.) Board a Blue & Gold Fleet ferry to Angel Island in San Francisco Bay for another walk of awe. Just 25 minutes from Pier 41, this under-theradar state park has the Bay Area’s best
360-degree panoramas. Trek the interior to the 788-foot summit of Mt. Livermore for million dollar views or hike around the flat paved perimeter for four-way vistas that include three bridges, two mountains and one spectacular skyline. (Pro tip: Double check the return ferry schedule before setting out.) If time is short, take an invigorating and unforgettable walk across the Golden Gate Bridge, either selfguided or led by a trained volunteer from San Francisco City Guides. The free guided walks only go to the bridge’s midway point, but still provide plenty of fascinating insights and history.
HEALTHY EATS After the holidays, healthy eating is on everyone’s mind. At the waterfront Ferry Plaza Farmers Market every Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday morning, the best of seasonal California produce is on display. Inside the landmark Ferry Building, try the plant-based Impossible Burger at Gott’s Roadside in a retro setting, or slurp delicious Hog Island Oysters straight from Tomales Bay. In the vicinity of the Ferry Building, find more market-driven menus. Boulevard is an American classic; Coqueta serves Spanish tapas made from fresh, local ingredients on its bay front patio; Yank Sing has wonderful dim sum and delicate dumplings; Ozumo balances seasonality with contemporary Japanese artistry; and at La Mar Cebicheria Peruana, the Seafood Watch program ensures certified sustainably sourced fish and shellfish with Peruvian flair.

WHERE IN SAN FRANCISCO
We’re addicted to staying in shape.
Resistance Bands No matter where I go I take my resistance bands. You can achieve a total body workout in the privacy of your hotel room and they are easy to pack.
For more great fitness ideas in the city visit
Running & Barry's Running is perfect for exploring new places while staying fit also try for push-ups in my room and look for a nearby Barry’s.

TRX & Yoga My keys to a healthy mind, body and spirit are balancing exercise routines such as TRX and Yoga while traveling. These core-building activities are versatile and practical for anytime and anywhere. –Karen Tamblyn, FashFit Founder, @Ktamblyn
Early Morning Jogging There is no better way to see a city than jogging early in the morning before the "tourists" awake—that's when you really see a city for what it is. I often run up Dolo-
res Street—the views are amazing. I also love trail running in Sutro Forest. –Jarrod Baumann, Founder of Zeterre Landscape Architecture, @jarrodryanb
Crissy Field My favorite free workout in San Francisco is to head straight to the water and run along Crissy Field. To step up my work out and get my heart really racing, I run up and down the wooden stairs that can be found just past the Warming Hut. –Claire Morrissey, Hint Water, @clairemorrisseysf
COURTESY BARRY'S BOOTCAMP
Traveling can put a damper on your fitness regimen but with a few tips from our locals, you can stay in shape while enjoying all the delights San Francisco has to offer.
