Chasing Amy:
There's a pretty big group in Philly, but they workout too late in the morning for me. I've only been to one of their workouts (day after Thanksgiving) and you have to be comfortable with a lot of hugging of sweaty strangers. A lot.
From what I have been told by friends who join them more frequently, it's become very cliquish.

I can't stand NP.
In theory, I should love it. In theory, it should be great. A free, welcoming, community workout group. But the execution of it (at least in Boston) leaves much to be desired. Many of my colleagues in the running biz agree with me.
--They take themselves so seriously.
--The self-promotion on social media is out of control. They project an attitude of "you're not as good as us if you're not part of us."
--Very clique-y. I've heard direct reports that newcomers are not made to feel welcome.
--The workouts are very hard and the "no man left behind!" thing is NOT felt. New/less fit people feel left behind.
--The dumb ass hipster selfies of the founders. Always looking at the camera like they've never seen one before.
--All the divorced guys in their 30s do it.
--Hipster bullshit, fitness style.
UGH.
New Balance severed their ties with them.
It really doesn't make sense and I'm always tentative to tell people how hard NP makes me roll my eyes, but I've found that most people I really like and respect agree with me! :D
Christ. Get over yourselves.
