Fitness Meet-Up?

alovelybakeralovelybaker Registered User new member
in PAX West
I was told and briefly saw a post from PAX East about people that like to get together to maybe go on a run and do some fitness-y things together.
Anyone interested in doing a run in Seattle or anything before, during or after PAX Prime?

    I will be running at least 2 of the days. Drop me a line

  • Star ForgeStar Forge Registered User regular
    I might be in. I will prefer early morning or late night.

    Same here. I am doing beat the Blerch a few weeks after pax so I need to keep up training. Running is usually a solo activity for me but it might be nice to chat with other fitness geeks

    @Rhea_starstorm‌ I am also doing Beat the Blerch (the half). :P I am not doing well with my training, however.

    Me too! On Saturday. My goal is just not to die lol...I'll crawl across the finish line if I have to!

  • Goddess of MadnessGoddess of Madness Registered User regular
    I'm up for a 5 or 10 K Saturday and Monday morning. I am not fast... I am steady... ish....

  • alovelybakeralovelybaker Registered User new member
    I'm not a fast runner, either. And, I do usually run solo, but it might be a fun thing to do together!

    I will need something to sweat the food/alcohol out of my veins.

    What is the route?

    I'm not sure on a route. I don't live in the area, so I don't know a route, but I'm sure we can find someone to help us or look one up on a running app. I'm excited people want to go running!

    I'll ask some people.

    How many miles do we want to run?

    Well, depending on the day and stuffs, we don't want to tire people dramatically. We could do a 5K for starters.

    I'm interested in non-running fitness. Like swimming. Or playing Just Dance 2014. I would totally hold a Just Dance 2014 exercise party at my house.

    @seckzee‌ - Are you in the Seattle LJ community? Your user pic looks familiar from somewhere else.

    @vespachica‌ haha I was back when LJ was a thing. I still have my LJ but I don't really do anything much with it these days. The username is the same as here though and the picture. What is your LJ?

    Okay. 3-miles.

    I'm assuming we want to keep it near PAX.

    <@heels&gt; oh god, what am i doing
  • Star ForgeStar Forge Registered User regular
    Can be a three-mile, break, three-mile. I don't mind doing it early on the 28th or 29th right before PAX.

    Here we go: http://binged.it/1nBgRBu

    It's a 2.8, down-and-back, along the water from Pier 52 to Sculpture Park.

    This route isn't too far from PAX and is down by Pike Place and Ivar's.

    I think we just settled on a 2.8 Mile track... That shouldn't be too bad... Right? :S

    It'll probably wind up being longer than 2.8, because of all the lateral movement needed to avoid running into people.

  • vespachicavespachica SeattleRegistered User regular
    I'm on the fence because I am local (but not local enough to go back home to take a shower) and I don't want to be sweaty and smelly before going in to PAX. If we did it a day or so before PAX I'd be down but, obviously, choice of the day is up to the majority. Also, I'm really slow. :P
