1 START A RUNNING CLUB

Why train solo when you could be outpacing your friends? The road is nature’s gym and running is better in numbers. There’s no need to pay for an expensive gym membership – get your friends involved and get moving. Make one day run day. For 30 minutes. Every week. Last person to the finish line buys the pizza!

 

2 PICK UP YOUR RACKET

There are plenty of fun things to do with a group of friends, but great weekend activities to do in pairs, too – like tennis. Few things come close to the intensity of a good game. You could try getting your group involved in a tournament. Whatever the outcome, it’s your body that’s the real winner.

 

3 JOIN THE TEAM

Sunday sport doesn’t have to begin and end with lapping the local park. Think of fun ideas to do with friends, instead. Activities like ultimate frisbee and flag football are novel ways to work up a sweat with a group of people. All you need is some willing participants and the weather on your side.
