    You can add me too - I love running, but it doesn't come naturally to me. I am currently training for a 5k with hopes of doing a 10k by the end of August.

    There's lots of good Couch to 5K apps and programs out there to help you on your journey. I used one as a warmup before I began my full fledged triathlon training and it got me where I needed to be. Now my typical run workout includes a minimum of 5K.

    That's awesome! i did start my c25k program starting week 2 this week! :) and when i don't do the program i try to run at least a mile. It's hard cause i have 5 kids and don't always get the time to get out of the house especially for 30 mins! So on those days i try for a mile!

    I did the couch to 5k program last spring and loved it. I ran in a 4 mile race in December. My race budget is small but I still run locally and on my treadmill. I haven't been running as much lately since my next race is the Spartan Sprint and I've needed to focus on strength training.

    I can barely manage time to run with 2 kids (5 1/2 and 2 1/2), I don't know how you breath much less run with 5 kids. I think you are my hero.

    Feel free to add me.

    I just started training for the Disney half marathon in 2015. I have a long way to go so I'm starting really early to get myself conditioned and in shape.

    I'm training for the Disney half too. Looks like such a fun run. You can do it! My goal is a Disney Half and the LA marathon... Eventually.

    I'm on week 4 of C25K right now and loving it. Anyone feel free to add me. I would love some fellow people attempting to be runners to share support.

    Feel free to add me- I'm not into a training schedule yet & only run 2-3 times a week but am up to 8 mi on my longer runs. I just have a couple of 5ks and one 10k planned for Fall but have my first half-marathon planned for early 2014.

    I've just started running again in the last month (I have done it for years, but on-and-off), and I'm toying with the idea of adding some 5k or 10k to my goals.
    You can add me, we can ALL use encouragement.

    I ran 3 marathons starting back about 15 years ago. My last one was 12 years ago. I have always run since then just not full marathons. They take quite a bit of training time which isn't feasible for me with a full time job and a child.

    Still love running just have become slower. My goal is to improve my 5k time to under 27 min. (26:30 was my PR way back when)

    Good luck on your upcoming races and reaching your goals.

    Hi!! I just ran a 5k last sat and I am planning a 10k in august. My goal is a half marathon. There is one here in chicago in september and I hope I'm ready. I try to run at least 2-3 times a week for about 45-60 min. I run about 11 min mile. Music really motivates me when I'm running. I LOVE it!!!! Anyone can add me!!
