In an approach to locating nearby computing device users to participate in a fitness activity, one or more computer processors receive from a first computing device of a first user, a selection of a fitness activity and a request to locate at least one second computing device associated with at least one second user in a vicinity of the first computing device to join in a fitness activity. The approach includes one or more computer processors determining the at least one second computing device associated with the least one second user is located in the vicinity of the first computing device. Furthermore, the approach includes one or more computer processors determining directions for the first user and the at least one second user to meet.

Dynamically creating fitness groups

A method for configuring and maintaining external monitoring of one or more instances of a virtual machine within a virtualized computing environment. The method includes a computer processor monitoring a hypervisor. The method further includes a computer processor identifying a first list, wherein the first list is comprised of one or more monitoring templates respectively associated with one or more virtual machine types, and maintaining a second list comprised plurality of provisioned instances of virtual machines, wherein the second list also includes a first information respectively associated with the plurality of provisioned instances of virtual machines. The method further includes a computer processor compiling a third list and transmitting the third list to the monitoring system. The method further includes a computer processor receiving the third list and in response, a computer processor executing one or more monitoring functions based, at least in part, on the third list.
