The Poplar Creek Trail is a 9.0-mile paved loop around Poplar Creek Forest Preserve near Hoffman Estates. The trail has a couple of hills but is otherwise level and makes for a pleasant journey through the wooded preserve. This is an informal group for those interested in meeting Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings at 6:15am for an easy-paced bike ride around the 9.5 mile loop. For variety, we could do a fast paced walk for an hour or ride a different trail like Busse Woods now and then. The g …

Do you have problems staying motivated to change your lifestyle? I thought it would be fun to create a group where we can all help each other stay motivated and create health in our lives. It would be great to meet new people in the area and to help each other stay accountable for a lifestyle change. I just started Nike Fitness Club workouts and it would be fun to start doing them in a group. Walking, a little Nike workout and sharing some great healthy recipes. What do you think?!?!?

I challenged myself to do 12 5ks in 12 months. In the end it was the best challenge I have ever set for myself because it turned out to be an adventure than I had not anticipated on having. Anyways, I wanted to make the expereince more social. I know a lot of people sign up for races because of family or friends, but what happens when that person can't go and you don't have any body to do a particular race with you? I know, most people end up not doing the race in that situation! So, I figured c …

Well we all know we SHOULD exercise and many of us make random valiant efforts along the way. But, alas, those efforts fall by the wayside as we either get discouraged or just plain bored. Most of us feel self-conscious walking into the gym alone. I would like to get a small group together to support one another towards our goals. This would be a group to help each other set up our goals and motivate each other to achieve those goals. I have many tools that I have to share and will help with cre …

This group is to get people outside and active this spring! People can join the group for a couple different reasons. They can join to use it as a progressive program, if they are interested in getting involved in local races. If someone has never done a race before, a wonderful way to begin is to start walking regularly! People can also join who would like to start some light exercise. Or, if people would just enjoy a leisure walk through the park!

I started this group as a way to connect people with outdoor and other activities. People interested in starting walking, running, bicycling, kayaking, snowshoeing groups or planning an excursion and looking for others who'd like to join in are encouraged to join and use this as a way to communicate what is being planned.

From Ice Age glacial moraine landscapes to the quartzite bluffs of Devil's Lake to the steep hills and valleys of the the Driftless Area, southern Wisconsin is a wonderful place to explore on foot.  There may not be any mountains, but the area has a lovely scenic value all its own. Unlike other Meetup groups, this is an ADVANCED hiking group, the hikes that I do are NOT suitable for the beginner or out-of-shape hiker.   Since there aren't any mountains or canyons in Wisconsin to provide a real h …

Meet and socialize with other vegetarians and vegans in the Madison area. I try to schedule events roughly every other week, usually alternating between a vegan dinner at a local restaurant and a social event that's not necessarily centered around food -- bowling, board games, potlucks, apple picking, miniature golf, cooking lessons, and camping trips, for example. With over 900 group members you're bound to meet people you have a lot in common with, as well as many from other walks of life. We …
