Feeling Fat and Lazy BEFORE the Holidays?

We are.  And that is terrifying because the holidays only seem to make it worse (i.e. too much turkey and Christmas cookies).  So why not start off the holiday season in a good routine and use your pup as an excuse to get moving?


While there are a million things to do in this city to get some fresh air and some exercise, I have been craving a good hike now that the weather has cooled down.  I went on Meetup.com to look for a group of dog friendly-hikers and stumbled on a few great groups:

Early Bird Hiking- This group has hikes scheduled for almost every day (both morning and evening), so there is no excuse for not being able to find time!  Many of their hikes are dog-friendly (such as tonight's full moon hike at Beaudry Loop... although RSVP is closed already for this one) so RSVP quickly and snag a spot on the next hike.

Los Angeles Dog Adventurers- For the more adventurous, this group does overnight camping trips, rock climbing outings, and even a few parties!

Singles with Dogs!- Not sure what kinds of fun outings they do... but if you fit both criteria, become a member and find out (and let me know!)!

These are just a few of many Meetup hiking groups, so get off of the couch (Bo- I'm talking to you!) and get moving!  There are also dog-friendly yoga groups and groups that do fun trips/social outings so your options are endless.  Find something that works for you, meet some new people with pups, and get ahead of the holiday season fitness lull.
