Thought For the Day #1
That's Where the Guys Are!
Recently moving into a penthouse in a nice city in the Bay Area (no, I don't own it, or lease it, I only wish...), I took up walking the trail that runs behind our tennis courts and putting green and stretches through the majority of Bay Area cities. It actually motivates me to get out and exercise since runs through beautiful parks, canals and country nooks...and provides you with fresh air (no cough, coughing as that old truck that needs a smog check shakes past you on the road). If you want, it can even take you through the Broadway Plaza district of Walnut Creek (rival to New York's fashionable shopping districts).
In fact, I found out that's where all the cute guys are. After trying my hand at an eschelon of clubs, singles groups, churches, etc., virtually all I could ever find were 110-year-old divorced men who seemed to be more active than any guys...or girls...my age. Crazy. Anyway, I finally gave up, deciding that it was just too expensive for young people to live in the East Bay and...hmmm...maybe I should move, too. That was until 4,325 young people, most of them guys, whizzed past me on bikes and jogging shoes, just on my first day on the trail. Success! The only thing is that it's too bad they're too focused to socialize as they whiz by... Otherwise, this Champs-Elysées (which boasts a bazillion "strollers" between 5-6p) of the Bay would be perfect. :)

I'm quite sure that the guys appreciate having you there to improve the view, but as a guy who enjoys his exercise (weight-lifting for me more than jogging) I'm afraid that you'll have zero luck while they're jogging. C (who is smokin' hot) barely gets more than a glance while I'm in the gym. (afterwards, of course, is a different matter!)
I suggest figuring out where they're all concluding their runs and ambush them there instead of part way along.
It's actually quite to your advantage to get them while they're still pumped up from running, since their heightened body excitement transfers very nicely to their impression of any girls they see immediately afterwards.
Great advice! Thanks. :)
Maybe you should spend more time at the Broadway Plaza or Tassajara Plaza, both very affluent, European type places where the social graces are more prevalent from what I've observed. In other words... people are more friendly and talkative and willing to meet new people.
