All work and no play can make for a dull week. You can fit some fun into your life by incorporating a great fitness routine or joining a sports team. And although it's great to be a player on the field, sometimes it's nice to take a seat in the stands instead. When the urge arises, head over to Golden Gate fields to be a spectator of some amazing, and recently "greened" races.

At Golden Gate Fields, they are reducing, reusing and recycling! They have reduced their monthly water use for maintaining the track by 85% and replaced their lighting with fluorescent lamps to boost their energy efficiency by an estimated 30%! They have also identified reuse options for their soil and electronics and increased beverage container recycling by 40%.

Head over to their tracks and check it out! Golden Gate Fields.
