Need fitness meetup group interest
Hi there everyone! I’ve recently moved to the general area and am still working on forming friendships. One kind of niche area I haven’t seen a huge overlap in is nerds who workout. Long story short, my ideal Saturday is going to the gym, then going to spend the evening playing DND. I know DC is a pretty nerdy, AND fitness focused area, but I haven’t really found a group that overlaps that. Thus, I was thinking of forming my own group and wanted to see if there was any interest in it.
I’m imagining it would be (of course) open to everyone, regardless of fitness level, but it would focus on having regularly scheduled events that combine some kind of movement, whether it be a few laps around the mall, a 15 minute HIIT workout in a park, a hike in a local forest, a rock climbing event, etc, with socialization afterwards. Similar to the run clubs in the area, but aimed at the people who like to play board games, AND box. Or for people who want to be more active, but feel more comfortable in what’s usually described as the “nerdy” activities.
It’s in no way, shape, or form meant to be discriminatory or rude to those who aren’t as fitness-focused. Just a way to combine some interests in what appears to be an underserved niche. Let me know your thoughts!
