This group is designed for people who love running but don't like the pressure of running with others. Yes, you heard right, it's a running group but we only will start together and run at our own pace. If we happen to stick together, fine, if not, fine. I do a lot of my running alone and would love to join up with other people who enjoy running too without the pressure of sticking together. I'm hoping to open this up to other workouts too (sprinting, stair climbing, barefoot running on NHS tra …

This group is aimed to bring together Elgin and western suburbs runners for group runs, races and social gatherings. I am creating this group because all of the local running groups all seem to gather downtown Chicago, far away from Elgin. Runners of all experience levels and running types should join. I will organize group runs bi-weekly, more as demand increases.

Whether training for your next race or just looking for a group to work on some fitness goals with, let's get out and do it together. We can alternate running with some cross-train …

Come join us for some rejuvenating meetups that will enhance your life. The group sessions will include energy healing shares and practice sessions, classes on the human energy systems, Reiki, the use of essential oils and more! We encourage anyone seeking “something else” out of live to come and discover what might help balance their situation.

This group has been formed as a means to bring persons interested in shooting "pool" together. If interest supports it, I would be interested in running an eight or nine ball league in the near future.

This group has new organizers! Instead of letting this group disappear, Jeff Bergen of the Elgin gaming store The Gaming Goat has stepped up to be the organizer of this group. Since he also runs the store's Meetup group, he's leaving it to other gamers to manage it and maintain the meetups. As such, we're going to try and open the group up to announce any public rpg gatherings in or around Elgin. So, feel free to suggest new meetups to announce your own games, or update us on existing game …

Bootstraps are a version of the lean startup with a 37-signals-esque twist, i.e a lean bootstrap. The goal of a lean bootstrap is to run in the black as early as possible, preferably from day 1. Boostrappers don’t need or want outside capital for the most part, and they are always conscious of the need to validate that they can actually make money doing whatever they are doing. Basically, if you (metaphorically) placed Rework and The Lean Startup in a blender, turned it to high, then ran the pur …
