It’s time to get in shape! Summer is almost here!

My fave new Treadmill!

Well, Summer is almost here so I’ve been trying to eat healthier and have a goal to lose a few pounds before Summer actually is here. I used to go to the gym but now I have been just walking and going to my favorite Yoga classes. I was quite excited when the opportunity came up to try out the WalkingPad Denise Austin 2.0 Double-Fold Treadmill from SCS.

I love how it folds up and is actually fun to use! Another fact: It is pretty much already assembled and easy to use!

Have the flexibility to walk, jog or run with the WalkinPad® Denise Ausitn 2.0 Treadmill. With a fully assembled unit right out of the box, you’ll be able to enjoy a high contrast LED display, a brushless motor design, and a 4-layer cushioning system. Convenience and results are just a step away.

It is available at Dick’s Sporting Goods.

SCS Make Life Easy is dedicated to keeping you moving with innovative fitness and recovery solutions that make wellness effortless.

The Aquarium of the Pacific is celebrating the delicate beauty and superhero powers of over twenty species of sea stars from around the globe in a new experience this summer. Stars of the Sea opens May 24, 2025, and continues through April 30, 2026. Guests will be able to meet sea stars like the venomous crown-of-thorns and spider-like brittle stars and learn about how the nonprofit Aquarium of the Pacific is working to save the largest sea star of them all: the critically endangered sunflower sea star. Guests will also be able to visit a reimagined section of the Aquarium’s California Terrace that focuses on coastal habitats, featuring the new immersive outdoor touchpool experience, Our Living Coastline. This new exhibit includes a life-like rock structure, multiple viewing windows, and surging cascades of water, designed to mimic a real tidepool on a rocky shore. Visitors of all ages will be able to learn about and touch different sea star species, including bat and ochre sea stars, along with sea urchins and sea anemones from California’s northern and southern coastal regions. Sea stars can be found in over twenty exhibits at the Aquarium, representing habitats from coastal tidepools stretching from Mexico to Alaska, coral reefs in the Indo-Pacific, the deep seas of Japan and the Galapagos Islands, and beyond. In addition, guests can discover the diversity of sea stars in a new film that will play throughout the day in the Aquarium’s Great Hall. As guests explore Stars of the Sea, they can learn about the stories behind each sea star species and the Aquarium’s groundbreaking research and breeding programs, including raising baby sunflower sea stars, offering hope for the species’ recovery.

Location: Aquarium of the Pacific, 100 Aquarium Way, Long Beach, CA 90802

Cost: Included with general Aquarium admission and free to Aquarium members / Reservations required
