Hi everyone! I am not new to myfp, but am getting back into the groove after a little break. I will be running my first half marathon in June, and I'd love some new friends and support! I am a pescatarian from the US, but I currently live in Finland. Looking forward to meeting you!

Work up to it week by week! Don't try to do it all at once or you'll get hurt and maybe not be able to reach your goal in time. Remember, you're just getting back into it now and may not be exactly as fit as you used to be. That being said, I offer you all the emotional support I can muster. You can do it!!!
