Looking for some friends!

Hey!
I'm looking for some like-minded friends to share goals, and to cheer each other on!
I'm 29, work at a popular coffee shop, and will hopefully be getting (re)married and having a family soon. I have an anxiety disorder that mostly sits on the panic range for now, and it's something I'm working on.
I have been running for about a year, but due to some setbacks (most recently an injury), I haven't gotten any farther than running 5k. My current goal is to run 10k regularly! I also pole dance, and would love to see myself actually achieve aerial tricks and lots of strength, which has as been a bit of a struggle! I've been part of a pole dance community for about 6 years now!!
I have recently gotten into yoga at home, as well!
I'm a big proponent of everyone being thought of as beautiful and valid. I don't care if you're "overweight," or if you struggle to put weight on. I don't really believe that weight is a big measure of how healthy someone is. I also don't subscribe to BMI as an accurate measure of health.
I'm very positive, enthusiastic, and if you have a goal, I will keep cheering you on!!
