    I go to a bootcamp in Ann Arbor. It is through Rec and Ed and Pete Thomas from the Biggest loser coaches it. A new session is starting on June 5th. It is tons of fun and LOTS of great people! =D You should check it out. They run in the Arb in the Summer on Saturday mornings too.

    I'm in Ann Arbor. I'm going to drop in at that boot camp one of these days. For now, I'm just running. I run 3 miles everyday, but more on the weekend. I'm training for the Dexter Ann Arbor 10K

    I grew up in A2 and live in Saline. Feel free to add me!

    The trails along the river are great for running. Nice loop starting in Bird Hills down through Longshore. Bring a partner or a dog though

    I'm in Dundee about 1/2 hour south! I frequent Ann Arbor for long runs and writing my thesis in local coffee shops! Feel free to add me :)

    Also, any interest in starting an Ann Arbor group? My bff loves her Denver group and I'm a little jealous of her massive support system on MFP from Denver!!

    Hi! I'm a bit east of Ann Arbor, but I was just there yesterday kayaking on the Huron river. Have you tried kayaking the new cascades yet? They are so much fun! Feel free to add me if you like!

    Live on the west side of Ann Arbor. Not a runner, but there are so many things to keep you active around here. Feel free to add me.

    jasperann--I was planning to sign up for the bootcamp, but the best I can do is drop in on some sessions. My husband is studying for the Bar exam and I don't have child care on Tu and Th. One of my high school friends and his wife are both involved in the boot camp too. You probably know them.

    Hey folks,

    I'm a little late to this conversation, but I work in Ann Arbor and live a little southwest of town. I'm a noobie runner, having done the C25K program last summer. Made a lot of progress, but then had to take about six months off due to an injury (only indirectly related to running), but got back into the routine again a couple months ago. Glad to hear the references to the river trail -- I've walked it in past years, but haven't thought to go running on it 'til now!

    Hey, I'm about an hour away from you in Sterling Heights, but feel free to add for extra support :)
  • Sorry - Just saw this :) At the moment I have a personal trainer to whip my *kitten* into gear so I can get back on track. I hope to start crossfit in the near future now that I'm feeling a lot stronger/capable.
  • I moved to Ann Arbor 2 years ago as well~ I'd like to make some friends and help keep each other motivated!

    I go to One on One Athletic Club in Ann Arbor (Boardwalk) pretty regularly, and sometimes Powerhouse Gym in Saline. I primarily do weight training with some HIIT cardio (treadmill, jumping jacks, burpees). Feel free to send a friend request or message if you want to compare notes, provide reciprocal support and encouragement.
