Love nature? Like to get dirty? Muddy? Wet? Then let's hit the trails! Primary runs will be weekends on the Bull Run - Occoquan Trail. Trailheads and distances will vary depending on time of day, trail/weather conditions, and participants experience. I'm currently at a beginner to intermediate distance and time (about 11:00 / mile) but always increasing and challenging. Will always be a mixture of both short and long runs with the "Run/Walk" method of training used. Each person will be r …

Every time I take off, I get an almost overwhelming sense of freedom. It's as if I could go anywhere, and not have to worry about traffic or whether or not a road has been built over a body of water. Then to see things from that perspective - sometimes awe-inspiring scenes of autumn, or a river as the light hits it just so, or the wakes of boats, almost like swans, or the mountains fading into the mist in the distance. Ask any pilot why they fly, but be ready to be there awhile, because we never …

In honor of the CitySec movement started several years ago, this is a local infosec meetup run by NovaInfosec.com. We basically meetup in at a local bar every 2nd or 3rd Wednesday of the month and talk shop, drink a few good beers and maybe grab a bite to eat. It's the perfect way to wind down after a long hard hump day.

This group is for people interested in deeper connections with the world, with each other, and with themselves.  It is a sharing and discussion group.  Right now, I plan to show a video and have an open discussion afterwards.  I'm sure other ideas will develop. Still waters run deep.  A shallow river babbles continuously, creating sounds that gently lull us to sleep.  A deep river has a surface that appears to be still, yet has currents far beneath - not easily seen, and yet powerful. Daring to …

Welcome to Reiki For Your Soul. Let's celebrate the spirit of Reiki and venture through the beautiful and magical world of Energy Healing. The deeper I go, the more I see. We all need that extra boost of energy to go through our daily routines. As we accumulate more and more stress in our daily life, the more off centered we become. Consequently we continue to loose touch with our reality and our oneness with the divine is lost. We are always on a crunch to do things, running daily errands, runn …
