Looking for some friends that run

in Introduce Yourself
I've been using MFP for almost a year. Some of the friends that I had quit or they went silent on me. When I work out I run most of the time and I enjoy going the distance. I'm looking for some friends on here for motivation, support and some advice. Not looking for a lot of friends but a few to keep me going.

    You can add me! I love to run! I've been on here for about a year too, but ended up creating a new account just a few days ago!

    I've just started my journey into running! I'm looking for more friends that do that! Currently working through the C25K and have signed up for my first 5k in June!

    I love going for a jog when it's nice out. It feels so amazing :)

    I've been working on running. Right now I still walk some but aim for 15-20 miles a week.

    Are you in DC, or only vacation pic?

    I'm trying to pick up running again, going to be horrible at it though.

    Hi, I have recently gotten into running and have a 12K coming up in June (trail run) and a ragnar relay coming up in October. I am not the fastest runner, and am only up to 10K currently but now that spring is here and the snow is melting, I will get some distance on the trails in prep for June. Add me if you like, as much as I would like to tell you I dislike running (I used to always say that) I find I enjoy it both on a treadmill in a pinch, and outside- rain, snow and shine!

    Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was going somewhere, I was running!

    Don't discriminate, a lot of us on here run, sounds like you just had a crappy set of friends.

    Anyone feel free to add me!

    It's (almost) all about the running for me.

    I've ran 4 marathons so far and entered for 5th and 6th (Berlin in September and Paris next April).

    Have had a couple of injuries that have meant little running since late summer but finally on the way back now.

    Hi,
    I'm 3 days away from finishing Couch to 5K (will be finishing on Sunday!) and after that I'm going to take a couple of weeks to consolidate 5K before starting on a 5-10K bridge programme. From there - who knows?!
    Add me if you like :)

    Hi! I'd love some running friends too! Seeing other peoples' runs motivates the hell outta me :-P I really enjoy running and am getting better at it :-) My diary is always open and I'm online daily.

    I absolutely LOVE running! I do a little of everything though...Stationary bike, walking, running, swimming (in the summer). I would love to be friends with any active people with similar interests. Add me, if you like.

    I am a running slacker! So, I think I probably NEED some motivational friends so add me if you don't mind a slacker! :) I completed C25K but I find it difficult to get motivated to go for a run with a busy schedule (single working mom = busy @ job and @ home!)... So, could use some motivation myself and open to adding friends who do!! Maybe we can all push each other to go further and faster... Just keep running... Just keep running... (think 'Dory' in "Finding Nemo")
