Tall Ship Recap: Fit Scene Boston’s First Community Event

On a crisp fall Saturday morning, Boston’s fitness community showed up and showed out for our Tall Ship Takeover — an unforgettable STRENGTH × RUN event powered by B/SPOKE, Kelly Whittaker-Cummings, and NOBULL.

Nearly 200 people gathered on the waterfront for a workout led by Kelly and Steve Sionne. The weather was perfect, the views were stunning, and the energy was electric from the very first warm-up.

Beyond the workout itself, our pop-up village created a full wellness experience. The NOBULL team had attendees testing out sneakers. Others relaxed with massages from Squeeze, recovered in Normatec boots with Flowstate Physiotherapy, received recovery shots from Vivolo Wellness. They sampled protein bars from Jacked Granny and David Protein, shared a cheers with Journee energy drinks, grabbed a pick-me-up Wandering Bear iced coffee, and checked out permanent jewelry from Allyne Amour.

It was a morning that captured everything we love about this community: movement, connection, and good vibes all around.

Why It Matters

Events like this remind us what Boston’s fitness scene is all about. Our city is full of incredible studios, instructors, and communities, and when they come together, something special happens. It is proof of how powerful movement can be when shared. It’s the energy that builds when different corners of the community meet in one place.

This is exactly what Fit Scene is here to do: create space for connection, collaboration, and a shared love of movement.

Looking Ahead

The Tall Ship Takeover was just the beginning. Our mission is to make Boston fitness more connected and accessible — one event, one conversation, one new studio discovery at a time.
