Hello there :) I'm new to the community aspect of MFP and looking for advice, friends and words of encouragement to get me to my goal! While training I've experienced body pain, weight gain and many more obstacles but I'm staying focused and addressing each issue as it comes my way! Kicking *kitten* and taking names :P Help this New Hampshire girl get fit and make it to the finish line!

    When is the half marathon? Have you ran one before? I'm running my fourth in two weeks. I'm certainly not an expert, but maybe could give some tips. Add me :)
