Need Runner Friends!

Hello....
To many of you, I may appear as the typical fat guy walking down the street: a little chub everywhere, but mostly in the gut. But I am a 200 pounder that can move! My best mile was 8:47, last week. I am barely starting on my physical journey in fitness, and I am ready to conquer new challenges.
I left the 5 km in the dust when I ran 2 Spartan Races. I plan to do at least two more at the Super and Beast levels this year, but I also plan to do a 6.76 km (Pat's Run- April 25th), a 10 km, and the P.F. Chang's Half-Marathon in Scottsdale next February.
I just want some friends that run, whether it be that you have run a marathon, or haven't even ran a 5 km. If you can recommend any groups that are active and intuitive, I would like to visit them.
Also, it is worth mentioning that I plan to do most of the races while on a ketogenic diet. If you are someone like me who is experimenting and challenging conventional wisdom, I could use you as a friend, too!
Safe Travels!
