As we noted late last week, we're running a follow-up tournament to the popular series of polls we ran over the holidays, only this time we're looking to hear your voice!

You don't have to explain why you made your choice, though we certainly encourage you to do so, but your vote is now as simple as typing the name of your favorite shop in the comment section below. The business with the most comments moves on to the next round (also, feel free to click on the link for each business and rate it, though that's an added bonus, not a requirement for this tournament).

Today, we want to know where Bedford residents head to burn their calories.

Perhaps you workout at Focus on Fitness, , , Symmetry Pilates Center or ? Maybe you enjoy playing in a league or pickup game at , or you're a female who prefers ?

You have 48 hours to vote for your favorite specialty shop (and let us know why this is your destination of choice) in the comment section below.

Once you've voted, visit the daily for updated results throughout the tournament. Just remember, only one vote per person, per day. We want this to be a fun and fair way to embrace small-town commerce at its finest.

Business owners, this is a great opportunity to market your business.
