    I just started running again. Love it but it's so hard to get started! I'm using the heat as an excuse today, I usually go first thing in the morning, now its 3 pm and near 90 degrees. I ran twice last week and it was awesome.

    I've worked myself up to doing 2 actual 5ks in the past but I have completed the c2 10K program and I think the most I've done is 5 miles but it has been months so I'd say I'm a beginner again.

    I did a half marathon once.... but it was probably 3 years ago so I am starting over as well. I haven't been running at all right now. Would love to be able to do another one some day.

    I started running 6 years ago because I was told I couldn't. I'm serious. I was told my knees would never permit me to do a 5k and I proved them wrong. TWICE. Then I had other medical issues and just...stopped. Last time I started when I was almost at my goal weight. This time I am not waiting. I am slowly getting back into it. Since I still have 20-30 lbs to lose I am not really pushing, but maybe I should be.

    I'm in! I personally like to sprint, but am working on endurance and pacing. I never let excuses get in the way of my exercise! Food is another thing.. haha.

    I did the c2 10 k also. I ran an 8k over a year ago and then promptly fell off the wagon and gained 40lbs. I started the c2 10k again, I'm on week 7. I'd love to join you gals and help foster some motivation! I use the MapMyRun app, too.

    I could do with some motivation - I run Parkrun each week, but would like to work on improving my running and being a bit more consistent
