The dating success stories below reflect only a fraction of the emails we have received from past members who have taken the time to tell us about their successful fitness dates and positive experiences they have had on our site. (You can enlarge the photos by mousing over them.) If you have a Fitness Singles success story of your own you would like to share, please contact us.
I wasn’t looking to get involved with any dating websites, but I signed up for Fitness Singles because I thought it would help me to get out and enjoy the mountains more and maybe find a guy who is active since that is an important quality to me. John was the first guy to email me the very same evening I put my profile up. I looked at his profile and decided to go ahead and pay the fee to use the site and take a chance. What did I have to lose?
What I found was just how much I had to gain. John and I really hit it off on our “dirt date” when we hiked up to an overlook to watch the sun set. A couple of weeks later in June, I spent his birthday with him and we actually got to ski together. We had an amazing time! Then John shared his passion for mountain biking with me and inspired me to take up the sport as well. We have shared many trail kisses and lift kisses in the two years since we’ve been dating and are very much looking forward to a bright future together. Not only did we find each other on Fitness Singles, but we also have other friends here in Salt Lake City who we met from the site and even attended the wedding of one such friend who also met her husband on Fitness Singles. The quality of the people in this community has been wonderful and we have said out loud on several occasions, “Thank you, Fitness Singles!”
True love is out there. Don't give up!

Roberto and I met via Fitness Singles two years ago and have been happily dating ever since. We both share a love for triathlons and life in general, so it was a match made in heaven. After emailing each other through Fitness Singles for several weeks, we met up and have been together ever since. We're both shy and not into the club scene, so we probably never would have met had it not been for this great site that connects physically active adults with a passion for life. — Bridget & Roberto
Yours was the first online dating site I have ever used. I went on a few other sites but got out of them quickly as they did not hold a candle to your site. I like how easy, clear it is to use Fitness Singles and especially liked a lot of the special features you had including the quality of photos, IM (a few problems there that need to be ironed out in regards to it not working properly on more than a few occasions) and being able to zoom in on other folks who shared my passion for certain sports etc.
I have met and dated a variety of men on this site and all were terrific guys. I find that Fitness Singles acts as a very good filtration system enabling me to directly access men who are very active like me.
I am signing off this site now after six fun months of chatting with men all over the world. A little while ago, John discovered me and we have been dating seriously for four months and we have both decided to come off your site and pursue our new relationship. Thanks again. I had a blast! — Jill
I’d like to say to those who doubt the success of meeting your soul mate online. It can happen and it did, to me. I never believed in a soul mate until I met my now husband here on Fitness Singles in February of 2009. We were living in opposite ends of the U.S., but he noticed my profile, contacted me, and then the fairytale continues from there. We knew we were made for each other from the beginning. I now am married to my soul mate and my best friend. So don’t give up gals & guys. The right one is out there, it just has to be the right time of your life to meet “the one.” — Renee & Bryan
Kera and I both began using Fitness Singles in the summer of 2008. I had never used an online dating service before as meeting and dating women was never an issue for me, but meeting the kind of woman I would like to was another story. Kera, on the other hand, had tried various online dating sites and had sworn them off forever. One day while searching for races to run over the summer, she discovered Fitness Singles and was intrigued with a site that catered specifically to activities she enjoyed and decided to join.
I am a 48 year old research scientist and professor at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs. I am a cat-2 cyclist and have completed many marathons. Kera was living in Vail, CO and enjoyed a variety of sports including running, triathlons, mountain biking and telemark skiing. We now live together in Colorado Springs where we enjoy all these activities together.
After talking for two hours on the phone every night for a week, we met in Vail and our first date was biking over Vail Pass. Since then we have spent every weekend together for nearly a year and will be getting married on August 1st. Since our first meeting we have participated in telemark skiing, snowshoe races, bicycle races, hut trips, mountain biking in Moab and running. — Rory
This is actually the 2nd note I’m sending to Fitness Singles. I met a lovely woman on your website in June of last year. Her profile name was janinej, a self-professed sporty and feisty girl from England. Well we fell in love in an instant and we are zeroing in on a date in November to be married.
So I say thank you to the good folks at Fitness Singles for bringing her to me. I couldn’t be any happier. It’s worth mentioning that when I found her profile I had decided that my search which led me to her was to be my last. Great save guys. — Michael
I guess in the big scheme of things I had my subscription for a very short period of time and had met some nice people but not the one. And then I saw a photo of a beautiful woman that caught my eye and as I read her somewhat quirky profile I could not resist but to e-mail her. She was looking for someone to help her with Golf and she also had mentioned she liked pancakes. I could not help her with golf but I do like pancakes. Within a few days we met for brunch one beautiful fall morning in Virginia. We had pancakes.
It is almost eight months later and we are engaged and we have just found a house for us. Our fitness lifestyle may be a bit different from each other but it is part of what we do and it links into a lot of what we do. I could not be happier. I have found someone who I truly love and her dedication to fitness puts a smile on my face every time she gets out of the shower.
I found Fitness Singles because of my triathlons - I found Laura because of Fitness Singles - and with Laura I have found true happiness. — Gary
Your website works! I’m a health and fitness professional (teach exercise on PBS TV,) not into bars and so I thought I’d try your website. I went on a date on July 4th and we just knew we had something very special. We married January 12th. Thanks! — Suzanne and Glenn
Thank you Fitness Singles! I had been using those other sites to find a partner but with no success. A friend suggested Fitness Singles and after just one week on your site I met the girl of my dreams. Who would have thought an Australian and a New Zealander could be so compatible? We have our love of fitness together, but after a few weeks of emails we discovered so much more.
Thank you for running a genuine meeting place for like health and fitness minded people. We are looking forward to our lives together thanks to you bringing us together! — Trent
I actually went on Fitness Singles to meet someone and ended up dating the owner of my gym, Neal. Interestingly enough, when I went on a date with Neal, he said that he also noticed me on Fitness Singles (because he was a member of Fitness Singles.) So, this is a success story because Neal didn’t realize I was single and looking for a relationship and Fitness Singles helped us get our “act together.” We are now happily engaged and in the process of organizing a 2008 wedding!
The attached photo is from a friend’s wedding in the Adirondacks of New York, where both Neal and I ran a 5k in the morning and were dancing by the evening! — Jessica
I enjoyed the my time on Fitness Singles. I met a wonderful
woman with whom
I made a great connection. We decided to pursue a relationship
together and hopefully it will continue to grow into something
special. Even though were 4.5 hours apart that was not a
deterrent for us since we share same lifestyle and upon first
meeting the chemistry was there. We will be travelling back
and forth at least a year before a decision of relocating
is made.
We would like to thank Fitness Singles.com for provided the opportunity for us to meet. Many thanks! — Nina and Brendan

Down here in Oz I managed to find the most amazing woman beyond my dreams in the States. We are now engaged. We are planning on getting married April next year in Hawaii. Thanks Heaps for your site, it is from this I found the person I have always wanted.— Matt
I believe that every great relationship starts with a great friendship and that is what I have found on Fitness singles. I have met an extraordinary man who complements me in more ways that I had every imagined possible. Within a week and a half, I flew down to San Francisco to meet this amazing person. We spent three incredible days together and we both knew that we wanted to build a life together. It is true of what they say... “when you meet that right person, you just know!”
Thank you Fitness Singles for being a part of our story. — Kathy
I can’t believe how lucky I am! I was only on the site a few days before I got an e-mail asking me out on a cycling date... a man of action you could say! I’m the happiest I’ve ever been and every time I think of him — I just get a big smile. He fills my heart.
It’s only been three months, but it feels like three years! We’re so comfortable together — we just fit. He’s everything I want. And when it’s right — it just works.
This was the best investment I’ve ever made. I never would have met him had I not signed on to Fitness Singles. — Jennifer
We had dinner and a show three weeks ago and last weekend we were together all weekend and Monday. She is great and we already look deep into each others eyes. There is nobody else for me. I will spend the rest of my life with her. She found me on her last day of being a member. Lucky me.
Thanks so much for your great site. — Jeff
Just wanted to say that I enjoyed using your site. I was lucky enough to meet someone very special and now we are very much in love!
Thanks SO MUCH! — Lauren and Jeff
John and I met on Fitness Singles in October and had our first date on November 7th. He was on your web site getting help to train for a Mt. Whitney climb and I had signed up after learning about your site following the October Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon in San Jose last year. Your website is a wonderful venue for people with common athletic interests to meet. Thank you!
John and I are very much in love and undoubtedly will spend the rest of our lives with each other. He is a kind and generous man who makes me laugh daily! I don't think either of us could be happier and we would both like to thank you for creating the web site that brought us both together! — Kerry
