I absolutely adore this shot. I’ve been wanting to do a whole series on old gyms for years, and these ones with the tracks on the second level are some of my favorite. I think my fascination comes from all the years of playing basketball, but there’s just something fascinating about these old “cathedrals”. You can almost smell the musk.
@Tom Can’t wait to see what you shoot. Love the musky nostalgia of the old gyms, too. Especially ones with a track like this.
@Marc Ah, and it’s still as hot as then, I’d suspect. The lack of a/c is a drag, but Jack spends a lot of time in here running around :)
@Simmy A classic!

Thanks for the reminder!
I spent so many hot summer days in that gym when I was a wee lad.
I’m gonna go watch Hoosiers now thanks.
