Hey everyone!

I was listening to TWiT today and loved the idea of a running club. :sparkles:
Since we’re spread across different cities and countries, why not do it virtually?
How it could work:

  • Set your own pace (walk, jog, or run!).
  • Share your progress in the group (steps, distance, or just a fun pic from your route).
  • Motivate each other with cheers, tips, or even silly memes that we could add to MoT meme :wink:

Walking and running aren’t just great for our bodies, they also boost mental health, reduce stress, and help with focus!
Ashutosh @thetesternextdoor mentioned returning to running and I should return to my daily walks too

I’m even thinking of creating a weekly meetup event for this :thinking:

Who’s in? Reply with a :man_walking::woman_running: or just say “yes”!

Let’s get moving and feel better together!

:woman_walking: I need to walk again. Probably my lunch hours would be the perfect time!

I walk during the week and run at weekends so happy to be involved when I can. :grin:

We could use Strava for this, there’s actually an old MoT group there already.

Im on Strava, I’ve been slacking recently but looking to get back in to it!!

Thanks for the push. Much needed(for me). I will install Strava.
Let me know if there is group which I can join.

Hey Rosie! Would you please share the MoT group on Strava so we can join :person_running: :person_walking: :person_biking: :hiking_boot:

It was originally just for running, but I just made it for ‘all sports’, let me know if that works.

That’s very cool. Thank you for setting this up Mariem.

I ran pretty much every day. I am on Strava, Nike Running Club and Garmin. :grinning_face: I have already joined MoT Strava group.

Looking forward to seeing all your activities. Today is a great day to walk, run or do any sport you wish.
