I recently moved back up to Michigan after spending a few years in Central Florida. I'm looking for suggestions for fitness activities in the area. My fitness level is BEGINNER. I just started training for a half marathon that I'll be run/walking. I'm doing a 10K in June. I'm looking forward to the weather getting warmer so I can do some hiking &/or canoeing, etc...

I've been to the Botanical Gardens once. I haven't been to "The Arb", but have heard a bit about it. Anyone have any favorite haunts for walking or hiking, etc... Where do you like to go to work out.? Have a favorite gym in the area?

Just looking for ideas. Also... if anyone wants a walking &/or workout buddy... feel free to give me a shout out.

Thanks, Dana

    If you're still searching for a workout buddy, check out WannaBuddy.com. The site is specifically designed to match up people who share a passion for an active lifestyle. Plus, there are thousands of parks and trails in a location-aware database for running/hiking and exploring. A great way to find a new workout buddy.

    The Washtenaw Community College Rec Center is open to the public and it is really nice. I used Planet Fitness until about a month ago, and for the price you can't beat it, but my girlfriend wanted aerobic classes and I liked the idea of having a pool to swim laps, so we switched to WCC Rec. It is also located right on the Border to Border Trail which is really nice for Biking and Running.
