    Best one I’ve seen is a gym class that has people jogging outside the gym. You’re actually paying to run on the street.

      The cost is to experience belonging in a group/ social thing with the goal of being healthy. the “crowd-sourcing” fee.

      also there’s now a cost to running outside, gotta run for reals now.

        There’s an “I think you should leave sketch” in here.

        YOU DONT OWN THE STREETS!

        NOBODY TALK TO HIM.

      My local bike club charges $5 if you want to ride with them to the local brewery on Saturday.

      The crossfit down my local stroad* does that. On the one hand, I find it kind of funny that they’re paying a gym membership to run up and down the sidewalk next to a five lane highway, on the other I think it’s an advertisement tactic; used to be you’d see the whole “congregation” but now it seems they only make the women who forgot to wear sports bras to class go run on the sidewalk.
