    I live in the Rochester, NY area. There is a large and active running community here, and a variety of terrain and scenery for running within short driving distances. Plus, we get four seasons. This winter is supposed to be mild, but the last 2 winters were worth some serious bragging rights for running outdoors.

    I'm in Spokane, Wa, & am in need of a running partner(s) as I can't stand street running. I love trails but don't feel safe doing it alone. I've asked everyone I know to be my accountability partner & go on trail runs, but nobody seems as determined (or insane) enough to make it happen. I'm now considering adopting a large, scary dog, and investing in some pepper spray. Still, last year, a woman was attacked & killed walking alone with her large dog across the river from where I lived...

    Awesome. I'm in Spokane too.

    I'm in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. The great thing about that is most of the half marathons & marathons are mostly down hill because they start them up in the mountains & we get to run the roads or trails down through the beautiful canyons.

    Austin, Texas. I've been meaning to go for a once-a-week, mid-week trail run ever since I lost my job back in September, but never seem to get around to it. I would love to hook up with someone who would also want to do some trail runs! We have some nice regional trails and it's not like I don't have the time. I tend to run 11 min miles, and when it's cool enough I like to bring my dog.

    Hi @TracyeS4! Give a shout if you feel like meeting up on Ladybird Lake trail, the Veloway or somesuch. I'm in Central Austin.

    @sineadc94 One of the things I remember from my stay in NZ is the Tongue Twisting Maori Community Names. Not as challenging as the Gaelic Names in Wales.

    Hey there ! Not far from you - I am on the other side of the water in Newport News - good luck with the AT Hike, are you doing the whole thing or just sections?

    Not in Spokane (but lived there), and am currently in the Seattle area. Training for Bloomsday after taking about 3 years off! Ready to do this!
