Imagine working out and finding Mark Wahlberg exercising beside you.
Well, that’s what happened to some Torontonians this week when the award-winning American actor made a surprise appearance on Tuesday morning at a gym called F45 Training in downtown Toronto.
Fans were met with shock and excitement when Wahlberg came in. In fact, he also wasn’t alone, former Toronto Maple Leafs player Tie Domi and his family were among his company.
For those who don’t know, Wahlberg recently became the Chief Brand Officer for F45 earlier this year in March, just one of many business endeavors he owns.
Located at 145 King St. West, F45 Training specializes in high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts, circuit training and functional training. The gym prides itself on its 45 minute sessions where you can burn 400 to 600 calories.
The gym was only the first stop in Wahlberg’s Toronto tour. He also went to the Ritz Carlton hotel and a Moxies location in downtown Toronto to promote Flecha Azul Tequila, another business in which he is the principal investor.
At the event, the Boston native served up customized drinks and tequila shots to the crowd. The Moxies team also created a signature cocktail in honour of the star. The drink called “The Marky Marg” is a pineapple basil based margarita made with Flecha Azul Blanco Tequila.
Wahlberg was there to celebrate the Canadian launch of the tequila which is available at Moxies Downtown Toronto and at all British Columbia and Alberta Moxies’ locations.
