Looking for running friends

in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone, my name is Joe and I am on week 1 of the Zombies, Run! 5k program. I am looking for friends that run for motivation and support. I would love to get to know some MFP people that are currently doing the C25K/Z5K programs or have finished them. I also like viewing food diaries to help improve mine.

    I completed the C25K training last year....feel kind of out of the running loop but this year got back into it. I casually run a couple times a week and participate in a bunch of 5Ks...feel free to add me if you'd like :)

    I'm not following the Zombies 5k program but I am running. Feel free to add. I'm on Nike+ too if you use that.

    I run (well, it's really more of a fast trot) too and it'd be nice to have some running friends. I'm training for a half marathon that's in a couple months so I could use all the encouragement I can get. I've never done a C25K program, but a number of my friends have and they swear by them.

    I'm on week 3 of C25K - should hit week 4 in the next couple of days. I am new to running but I've been bitten by the runner's bug. My first 5k is not until Feb ( a rundisney disney world 5k) but I wanted plenty of time to train :)

    Everyone tells me I will come to love running....I am not so sure hahahaha I keep doing it but I usually dont love it until I am done my run....I guess it is a love/hate relationship :)

    Thanks everyone, I am going to add you all!
    I'm not following the Zombies 5k program but I am running. Feel free to add. I'm on Nike+ too if you use that.

    I am a Nike fan but not on Nike+ yet. What are the things you like about it most?

    I am currently in training for my third half marathon.
    I got in to running using the C25K programme and loved it.
    I always go back to it after a lengthy illness or surgury and have reccomended it to friends.

    Always looking for running friends, please feel free to add me!
