All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.
See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

I have no issues with posts like this in this group, as long as there's a connection to nature in the post and ensuing discussion. There are qualitative differences between running through natural settings and those full of concrete and blacktop, and I feel as though this is an appropriate avenue for folks to explore that.
Additionally, there had been interest during the last round of community suggestions for an "Outdoors/Hiking" type community. While there wasn't enough to get the green light, several mods felt that this corner of Beehaw would be an appropriate forum for those posts until there's enough engagement around those for their own community. If a post is more about technical aspects of running, you may be asked to post in !sports instead.
I'll second this. I'd love to see posts about the green spaces you run through, but for a discussion more focused on the running itself, that would be better suited elsewhere.
