If not, would you?

If yes, tell me about your experience.

    Yep, met one. We had drinks and had a good time. Not a whole lot more to that story.

    No. Might meet depending on the situation. Some of my friends are local and do running events so there's a good possibility I'll end up in the same place as some of them.

    I've met about two dozen people from my friends list. A small handful of them have become in real life best friends and one became my significant other.

    I'll be meeting a couple more at the Indiana Spartan later this month and 3 or four more in Cleveland over the summer.

    yes I Have , but not for any nefarious reason -

    met one who is a fellow mom of twins, and we had a lot in common , just hung out a couple times, but we talk regular still, though she is not active on here anymore..

    and 2 others who are great people and were fun to meet but we did not remain in contact.

    Yes, 2 so far plus I have a friend who is here whom I knew before (but also originally met on the internet). It went well. We've had lunch a couple of times.

    Not yet, but I am hoping to soon. I have a girl on my friends list we know that we don't live very far from each other, we have talked about meeting up for a run some time or to take our dogs for a walk. We are talking about doing The Color Run here locally in August. I think it would be cool to meet her hang out and maybe have another exercise buddy

    Yes - Twice now and both lived out of town. The first I met when I was at an out of town race - She had posted the race on MFP and I happened to be visiting my grandparents that weekend so I signed up and we met at the start and finish. We only talked for a bit, but it was nice to meet a MFPer!

    The second time one of MFP friends from the east coast was on this side of the US to take the Ca BAR exam and we met up to run a 10 mile trail run. Again it was nice to meet someone in person!

    Yes I met 2 of my mfp friends at the same time, we had dinner and drinks, it was a really good night. Got to know them much better and feel like I know them alot more.

    ETA I also bumped into someone when out shopping, it was weird going up to her and saying "Hi I'm skinny from mfp" lol my kids looked at me like I was mad!
