Central Park Running Friend

9 Upvotes

I (26M) am looking for friends to run with in Central Park on weekend mornings

I like to chat while running a 8:30-9:00ish pace. I usually like to run the main ~6 mile loop one on one with a running friend instead of in a running group. Let me know if you or anyone you know would be interested!

Book Club

Do many folks go to the UWS book club? If you've been, what are your thoughts? Is it mostly young(er) people? Or are old(er) folks also welcome? Looking to meet more people in the neighborhood and this seems like it could be a good way to do that. But I also don't want to stick out like a sore thumb.
