in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone, my name is Rachael and I'm based in the UK. Although I've been here for a while and have a few good MFP buddies I'm looking for people who are active or keen runners. I'm fairly new to this activity and doing quite well but sometimes have questions to ask and would love a few extra friends I could turn to if I have any running related questions, issues or problems.

I don't care where your based and thank you in advance

Rachael :glasses:

    I run about 25 miles or so a week and am always willing to talk about running. I think you'll find most runners LOVE to talk about running. Feel free to add me.

    There are several running groups on MFP - if you go to the groups section and query for running you should find some. Also, there is currently a 'running challenge' thread where runners are setting a monthly running goal for themselves and trying to meet it. That could be a great place to find runners too. :)

    Welcome to MFP, and have fun running. :flowerforyou:

    I'm a keen runner, based in Ireland. I'm not an expert and could possibly be Ireland's slowest runner but feel free to add me as a friend. If I can't help I might be able to point you in the right direction.

    Hi! Running is my main form of cardio! I do everything from sprint workouts to long distance (I've completed a few full marathons, back in the day!).

    I'm currently training for a half marathon.

    I believe running can be every bit mental as physical, and few things make me feel like I've truly gotten a workout like running! I am not a fast runner, nor did I do track in high school. Just someone who picked up the sport out of curiosity years ago and found it works for me. Now that I'm trying to get back into shape, I'm using running as a means of dropping some weight.

    I'll send you a friend request. ;)
