Trying to find active friends.

I want to be more active and it would be nice to have people to be active with. I belong to a gym and have tried reaching out to fellow members of the gym and have not been successful in finding anyone or a group that exercise outside the gym. Does anyone know of other ways to link up with other active people or small groups in a specific area?

    You could try meetup.com and look for any local fitness or wellness groups. If you have FaceBook you can probably also find local fitness groups that way, or even just post a general statement on FB saying that you're interested in working out and improving your health and ask if anyone would like to join you

    Thanks youngcaseyr. Those are good suggestions. I have tried the Facebook route and I did not have any responses.

    Visit your local 5k/10k on the weekends. Don't everyone is drinking beer after, so its easy to talk to new people. You'll be surprise at the amount of active people who turn up.
  • When I was living in NY the new board cast this fitness website called dietbet.com where you when cash for your weight loss but once I got in people where looking for others to workout with so I think you should check that site out.
