Anyone in Philly looking for a friend to start running with?

There are several Philly running clubs but I am just starting and not quite ready for the 5-7 mile runs.

Is anyone in Philly and interested in a C25K running buddy?

  • If folks are interested in a new-to-running club in Philadelphia, we can make a group on MFP and organize that way!

    Good luck, I started running with C25K 3 years ago and now run half marathons. It is great to look for a running buddy. I am in Montco, Pa. You may want to check with a local running club anyway, they have people of all levels
  • From C25K to half marathons! That's exactly what I want my story to be. Good for you!

    You can do it !

    I swore when starting to run I would never run more then 3 miles. Well I did my first 5K and the Broad Street 10 miler next in the same year. Then moved to half marathons....I just did my 5th two weeks ago
