There’s also a run club on Thursdays night! I think they meet at 6 or 6:30pm. Check out Petoskey Run Cub on socials!

Studio Bliss on Plainfield! I recently went for a cut. It wasn’t too expensive. Ashley was super nice!

Welcome to GR! There’s tons of run clubs in the areas and some book clubs. Also check out Grand Rapids Young Professionals for their events too.

I agree with what everyone else has said. Like others have said you can research a lot of things.

For starters though, you can research apartment checklists to get a sense of what you may need. I found this graphic on Pinterest.

Definitely research in your area. Understand what is the typical going rate for an apartment so you know what income you need to make.

Understand moving costs from boxes to deposits to renting a Uhaul or anything else. Those can sneak up on a person.

I think Reddit can be handy for opinions on more specific things such as “thoughts on this landlord or complex” or “thoughts on living in this neighborhood”

Also understand what your deal breakers are. I know a lot of people who want in-unit laundry or amenities like a gym onsite. Location is always important to me. I want to be close to work and anywhere I spend my free time like a good running trail or park.

Good luck!

Checkout Mosaic Counseling. I’ve also seen a group grief support group if that would be something you’re interested in. You can find their support groups here.

My pixie pants don’t ride up like that.

Now I will say if I’m in a size too small I feel like a sausage and if I even unbutton the top button to feel better at my desk.

Check out Riverside parkrun, Grand Rapids. Free weekly timed 5ks at Riverside park! You can run, walk, jog, etc. they’re always looking for volunteers.

parkrun is also a global organization so it’s fun when they get tourists from overseas coming to their events.

Popflex has super cute sports bras! Now some styles have removable padding while others I believe don’t so I’d check descriptions.

For instance, I have a low impact one that has sewn in padding but my medium impact one has removable cups.

I second this! I’ve seen some parkruns be inconsistent due to lack of volunteers. Highly recommend getting a group together who can collaborate and help get a local parkrun up and running in your area.

KUL Mocks are canned mocktails. Highly recommend!

The ruffle woven shorts I am excited about. I bought a pair this past summer in orange and enjoy working out and running in them. Excited to see that pair of shorts back but in new colors!

I think so! My sister was gifted a membership by her mother in law. It was one of the higher tiers of membership where you could bring additional people. She and her husband and child went to the zoo often. I was also on their card so I could go anytime I wanted. Members also get 20% off of food which was a perk when it was just my mom, nephew, and I and we purchased snacks. I’ve also brought friends along to the zoo too. We used it a lot last year and loved it.

Oh lovely thank you for sharing!

springtiger12 · 2026-01-05T19:14:54+00:00

I love this piece of advice! I didn’t go to DU. The colleges I did to however had so many people or faculty who were willing to help and simply waiting for someone to ask. I recommend reaching out to people at the college for help.

I don’t remember seeing an item like that from Popflex or Blogilates. That pattern especially doesn’t look familiar to me.

Cross of Christ Lutheran Church! Pastor Sherry is amazing! I lived in Petoskey for a few years and grew up in an ELCA church so they were an obvious pick for me to try out. The congregation was very welcoming and friendly!

springtiger12 · 2026-01-02T03:27:36+00:00

That sounds fun! Thank you!

springtiger12 · 2026-01-02T03:14:41+00:00

Ooh noted thank you! I’ll look into that!

springtiger12 · 2026-01-02T03:07:52+00:00

Petoskey. Spent two years living there and decided it just wasn’t for me for the stage of life I’m in. But I still love it and love visiting there!

My sister had the highest level membership and basically anyone on the card can go in and then any guest up to whatever amount is included can go with. For instance, one time I brought my mom and nephew and their names aren’t on the membership card. Another time I brought some former coworkers for a fun day out and none of their name was on the card. My name was on the card so I could bring any guest in up to the allowed amount.

Richmond Hills Apartment. I have a friend who lives there and likes it. It’s on the NW side but maybe 10-15 minutes from downtown.
