Finding places to eat out
So, last week, I compiled a list of "lunch places" close to my work with vegan options.. I sank quite a bit of time in it. Then last night on a youtube video I saw someone mention the "happycow" app, which essentially does the same thing instantly. I downloaded the free version, tried it out, and it seems to be really…

Forum/Group changes
Apparently there are big changes happening with the forums and groups. Most look to be really awesome (even though there are a few small things concerning me..) One of the biggest/best IMHO will soon be the ability to finally access forums and groups from the cell phone apps!! w00t! Here is a thread detailing changes:…

2015 Indiana runs
I found a great site with a lot of runs for the year laid out in a simple plain format. The rest of the thread can be used to discuss if anyone is attending any of them (special threads could be made if we get several people all running the same event and plan to meet up). Also, if anyone has runs of interest that are not…

For Stats geeks here..
I know this isn't Indy specific, but thought a few people might see it here that wouldn't see it in other places on MFP.. A user has developed an excel spreadsheet that pulls MFP data for a user, with much better stats/projections than what MFP gives you. It looks like it's been "in development" for close to a year, and…

Bike Trails/Lanes
I saw yesterday from the IndyStar that Indy is supposed to be working with a Boulder, CO company to make a lot of improvements in Bike Lanes (likely adding separators as well as miles)... Great news! Also, has anyone been out much yet this year? Have the trails on the east side over by Fort Ben that were being worked…

Tweed Ride - looks fun
(especially if you have the clothes/bike for it...) :) I hadn't heard of this one before, and it looks like a grand old time..Dear Cyclist! Do you yearn for a leisurely alternative to the pell-mell pace of the modern bicycling world? Do you occasionally view lycra and stretchy cycling clothes as excessively modern and…

best place to buy "health foods" in Indy?
Ok, I have a little specialty health food store in the strip-mall by where I work (75th and Shadeland). It is where I bought Chia seeds the first time. However, their selection is limited and pricey... Does anyone else have any good places to buy stuff like that?

Frankton Heritage Days Bike Ramble
Our town is having it's local fall festival (called Heritage Days) on Friday Sept. 20th, and Kathy and I planned it's first ever Bike Ride. It's either 6 or 9 miles (kind of short for regular cyclists, but they wanted to keep it accesible at least this year for beginners and older kids).... If anyone one on the Northside…

Feel free to post anything health/fitness related here, especially if it has a local Indiana slant, or if you just need help with something on the site. There are a few of us that have kept this group somewhat active, but I'd love to see it get really active. If we…

How warm for you to get back outside running or cycling?
I've ran outside twice this winter in 20-30 degree weather... the last time it was slushy in a few places - which went right through my vibram komodo's.... So I had to cut the run short by about half because my toes were so numb.... since then, I've been treadmilling it - although there's been a couple days I've been…
