Life Time Fitness to Host Inauguaral Gran Fondo Cycling Series Event

Unique Ride to Incorporate "Races within a Ride"

Life Time Fitness, Inc. (NYSE:LTM):

                Life Time Fitness members and general public are invited to
                participate in the inaugural Life Time Gran Fondocycling event.
WHAT:           Open to recreational and competitive cyclists alike, Gran Fondo
                (or "Big Ride") events have become increasingly popular in
                Europe and beyond for their long-distance, mass-participation
                ride - versus race - format.

                The unique, 100k (62.1 mile) Life Time Fitness ride will cover a
                beautiful, yet challenging course on the country roads through
                Mound, Orono, Watertown and Delano. It features three 'Races
                within a Ride' at designated points on the course in which age
                group winners will be crowned in the three categories: King and
                Queen of the Mountain, Time Trial and Sprints.

                Additionally, the event will offer two refueling stations along
                the route and a festive, post-event BBQ at the finish area for
                all participants.
