    I figured there were. None of my friends like to run. It gets really boring running by myself..

    I also like running and could do with friends. I have cut way back on it since I had an injury a few weeks back. I now only run twice a week. Am considering moving on to a bridge to 10k programme. My husband's awway with work so would only manage to get out twice a week for the training, that's what puts me off.

    I just started running, I get why people like it now! It's important to start slow so people don't over extend themselves.

    I'm doing Couch to 5k and really enjoying it, it's hard but the high is worth it!

    I also love love love to run! I do have an injury right now - I'm thinking it's a bone spur in my heel - I've had it since like APRIL! Luckily, it's like it's not even there when I run :) I think my shoes just make it totally comfortable. Hurts like crazy when I wear sandals and heels though!

    I only started running a month aor two ago. But I really, REALLY like it. I don't know if I would say I love it yet. But I love how I feel when I am done and I am starting to actually look forward to my running days.

    there are lots n lots of runners on here.
    and while i dont think of myself as a 'runner' i enjoy running, and run 3-5 times/week, usually no more than 5miles each time.

    I have been "running" for over a year now. I did a 15k in March and really wanted to do better than what I did, but I was held back by an injury, also.

    Add me as a friend...I run slow, but I try! I didn't care for it at first, but I do enjoy it now. I am getting ready to start a half marathon plan in a few weeks...

    I love to run...outside. Not so much on the treadmill. Though for the next couple months, I will only be doing light cardio.

    I have been riding a bike cause my legs have been bothering me also. I had stress fractures last summer and think I have em again. ;(
