New to Group and looking for friends

After a long cold winter, I'm working on getting back into shape and running again. Now being in my middle 40s, it does seem harder to lose weight. I signed up for 5K this month and one in July. Looking forward to getting healthy and meeting new people working towards same goal.

    Good luck with your marathon. I ran the Delaware marathon last year. We met this guy in his 70 who has run over 1,000 marathons. I thought if he can do that many than I have nothing to complain about my third marathon.

    You and me both. This winter was brutal. I've already signed up for a half marathon in November and just got done with a 10 miler race in April. Feel free to friend me.

    Hi,
    I don't run--seriously, if anyone ever sees me running, they had better run too because it means something bad is chasing me--but I am always looking for motivation, so feel free to add me as a friend! I'm almost 42, live in Delaware, and I'm tired of this fat *kitten* sp I need all the help I can get!
