    Thanks for starting this thread. I live in Queens and go to LI all the time. Maybe some of us can find a challenge/run/race/outdoor activity to do together. If you're interested, let me know and/or friend me :)

    Hi :) Lindenhurst here. I've been signing up for some 5ks if anyone is interested. I'm excited about the macarthur airport veterans 5k and I'm considering the summer run series from the greater running club. I am on week 5 of the couch potato to 5k challenge.
    I'm also searching for people that want to try and play tennis. I barely know the rules and might be the most novice tennis player ever, but I've been really wanting to try and hit some balls back and forth.
    Feel free to friend me and/or message me if you want to get together for anything like that!

    They're all great! I live close to Heckscher so I do a lot of my running there. Caumsett is so beautiful, great for exercising! SM is still my fav though.

    Hi, I am Kathleen from Nassau County--Freeport. I am doing the Runstart program again this year. It is a once a week training group for beginning (or not so beginning runners) with coaches. It meets on Wednesday nights at 630 at Bethpage HS...the kickoff meeting is 6/21 @ 7pm @ Old Bethpage Village Restoration 1303 Round Swamp Rd, Old Bethpage...It is $30 and it is really a great program.

    What kind of workouts do most of you do and where do you do them?

    I kickbox at a studio in Baldwin and run and bike all over the Island.
