We are a group of runners in our 20's and 30's, with members ranging from beginner runners to those who have been running for years. Nothing like knowing others are waiting for you to make sure you go out and run! We are not competitive, regardless of pace (we have some very fast runners in the group, and very slow runners, and even if you can't run the whole thing, and need a walk break, it's ok).  We always welcome new faces! Our weekday runs are always by time, not distance, so that we can al …

We are a group of folks who like to take it easy on the roads. No need for speeding when you can just cruise down the road, watching the scenery go by, with the breeze in your face. Our goal is to encourage safe, responsible, and pleasurable motorcycle riding while enjoying the company of those with similar interests. We try to seek out the back roads and the interesting venues, enjoying the experience. Ride locally and long distance. The requirements to be the leader on a given ride, is you tak …

Every time I take off, I get an almost overwhelming sense of freedom. It's as if I could go anywhere, and not have to worry about traffic or whether or not a road has been built over a body of water. Then to see things from that perspective - sometimes awe-inspiring scenes of autumn, or a river as the light hits it just so, or the wakes of boats, almost like swans, or the mountains fading into the mist in the distance. Ask any pilot why they fly, but be ready to be there awhile, because we never …

Welcome to Arlington, DC Hiking Group! This meet-up group is for people who like to hike and get outdoors. Our hikes have evolved over the last 2 months. While we do a good number of moderate and easy hikes, we have begun including more strenuous hikes each month. This gives hikers a great opportunity to get to know the group and advance in skill and ability. As the hike leader enjoys long hikes, you can be sure that the easy hikes will be 5+ miles in distance. Welcome to the group, we hope you …

This is a group for people looking to do all types of triathlon training with a group. From sprints to Iron Man distances and even Tough Mudders! I started this group because I made a deal with myself 4 years ago to complete an Iron Man before I turn 40. I turn 40 in January 2014....I also have 3 kids and a job which make it nearly impossible to accomplish this alone!

Welcome to Arlington's first official Yoga Ball Soccer group!  What is Yoga Ball Soccer you ask?  Good question!  The game is pretty simple; it is played like a traditional game of soccer, but using a giant yoga exercise ball in place of a soccer ball.  Unlike soccer, Yoga Ball Soccer (YBS) allows you to use any part of your body including your hands to get the ball down the field and into the goal. The game will be held every Sunday beginning at 4:00pm at Long Bridge Park (475 Long Bridge Driv …

This is a group for beginner runners who want to run in a group of runners with similar skill set. We started this group because we believe most people that are not elite runners would shy away from a running group with elite runners. We wanted to open a door for beginner runners to learn the basics of running through interval training and in turn increasing their mileage, speed and confidence to tackle a 5K, 8K 10K or more.
