Love nature? Like to get dirty? Muddy? Wet? Then let's hit the trails! Primary runs will be weekends on the Bull Run - Occoquan Trail. Trailheads and distances will vary depending on time of day, trail/weather conditions, and participants experience. I'm currently at a beginner to intermediate distance and time (about 11:00 / mile) but always increasing and challenging. Will always be a mixture of both short and long runs with the "Run/Walk" method of training used. Each person will be r …

Seasoned gym climber? New to the walls? Interested in giving it a try? Meet new people to climb with, get up some great routes, enjoy a total body workout and have a fun time. One of the best things about rock climbing (especially indoor climbing) is that a seasoned climber and a newbie can climb together and have a great time. Can't say the same thing about playing tennis with your co-worker who played in college or your BFF who plays on a weekend soccer team.

One of the best ways to network is to do it through shared activities. By being in a relaxed atmosphere you will get to know others and establish deeper relationships doing something you like, vs. a quick networking meeting at a hotel or restaurant. Besides the networking opportunites for business and work, you will also improve your health and fitness. Hikes will tend to be 4-6 miles during the weekdays before or after work with options for longer hikes for those wishing to do so. It sure beats …

During the ski season, I hope we can get some folks out for some weekday day trips to Snowshoe or other mountains and perhaps a couple of trips going north to VT. If we grow in size, I hope we can look to trips west to CO, NV, UT... But, skiing is only roughly a 4 mo …
