Best Fitness Facility
The Meadow Park Sports Centre is still the best place to work out in town with a pool, cardio room, weight room, fitness room, squash courts, an ice rink and more. There's nothing else in Whistler that can offer anything remotely close, although there are still some pretty good options if you live in the south end of town or are looking for a specific kind of workout.
Cat Smiley got a lot of votes this year in various categories, and her studio ranked second in this category this year. The Core fitness centre in the village, which has the resort's only climbing wall, was a close third and just one vote ahead of CrossFit Whistler.
