    Hi all - I'm Vince. I no longer live in the Pittsburgh area - but lived in Highland Park, Richland Twp, and Penn Hills - now in San Antonio TX - so I can't really participate in Pittsburgh activities!

    Hi everyone!

    I'm Aly, a small goal I have is to lose about 5 pounds by the end of the month.
    I live in the South Hills area and it would be awesome to do a kayaking activity with some fellow Pittsburgh MFPers!

    Hello! My name is Lynn.
    I live in Millvale.
    My goal is to lose 5 pounds this month. I have a lot going on until about August. (Only a few free weekends between now and then).
    I work in Oakland. I love to walk. I do like to try different things. So, I would be interested in doing different activities if I am free.

    I'm Jodi
    I live in the North Hills area
    I am pretty much at my goal weight (maybe 5 more pounds) but I really want to get fit and toned.
    I am training for a 5K that is coming up in a few weeks and possibly a 10K in October.
    I don't have a lot of time for other activities (I have 3 kids and they keep me pretty busy) but if something fun and exciting comes up I might be interested!

    I'm Stephen. Originally from Texas, but now working in Pittsburgh (commuting from Ohio). Yup, it's a lot of drive time. My goal is simply to try and get in the best shape I can. I set event goals to help keep me motivated. Recently I signed up to do the Pittsburgh Triathlon again (Sprint distance). Later this summer, I'm also planning to do Warrior Dash and Tough Mudder.

    I'm Heather.
    I have over 100lbs to lose but I'm fine with slow progress as long as I'm making progress!
    I live in Castle Shannon (glad to see someone else who does!)
    I will be doing the 5K Arthritis walk in June. I am trying to walk a lot more often. A walking group might be fun! I don't drive so I take the trolley/bus wherever I plan to go.

    @Greybeh, Walking grp is in awesome idea :) I don't drive either but w/ the Jail Trail, Southside trail and North side River walk trail which are really nice we can totally set something up like sat/sun am or evening. That would be awesome

    I would be interested in walking sometimes. I walk the trail from Millvale to Heinz field and back and is 6 miles round trip. I love that trail. I would be willing to do other parts of trail sometimes too.
