Ummm... I think I saw a zumba class in Vizcaino once?

Unless you're in Tijuana or Cabo, I think the kids are going to have to take up cactus vaulting and whale races, sorry. It's f&@#ing Baja.

Hard to say on that route. For me, it's a tossup between the Laguna Chapala Spa and the Catavina Golf and Country Club.

I believe if you pay the posted public green fee at Catavina G&CC they will give you access to all of the club amenities for the day. It's Mexico, so don't expect perfection, but I think most of this forum would agree they're the best in town.

Laguna Chapala is nice on a weekday; in fact, this time of year you're likely to have it to yourself.

Train? They can climb boulders. Do sprints on the dirt roads. Swim in the gulf. Walk 50 miles. Take bicycles and ride offroad - not on Mex 1. Climb a mountain. Train for what?

If they are athletes talk to their coach, or trainer and get so things for them to do. How about a little cross training. There is a pool at Catavina, it is not a lap pool. The ocean both side will be cold to swimming without a wetsuit.
