Hi all, I'm not new to MFP or anything. In fact, I've been on this journey for about 15+ months and have lost 139lbs so far. I took up running last April to train for my first 5K, which I ran in September. I did my second 5K last month and am not signed up for my first 10k this coming September.

Despite all that, I've only very recently moved my running to the great outdoors, and I LOVE it (even though I'm already dealing with a knee issue, ugh). Now that I'm outside and can fairly easily run 3 miles at a time, I am starting to consider myself an actual (slow) runner, and would love some more running friends! Please feel free to add me, I have a ton of questions and really want to pick your brains, haha!

    I'm slow too! I'm not training for races, just running because I like it, but I'm sending you a FR. :)

    I'm a jogger/walker right now... though I did manage to finish the Flying Pig 5k averaging 14 minute miles.... I sent you a friend request.
