    I am still working on losing weight and ran my first half marathon in January and now I'm training to do three half marathons in 2017 with a bunch of 5Ks and 10Ks along the way. I am sending a friend request now...

    I'm not a runner, but I'm signed up to walk a 1/2 marathon in September. I'm up to 6 mile walks, need to keep upping my mileage so I'm ready to go!

    You can add me! I don't have any races on the books right now but I'm trying to get back into running regularly and hope to do a few races over the summer and fall. I am trying to lose 25-30 lbs.

    Friend request sent! I'm training for some half marathons this summer too, and using them as part of my training for my first full marathon in August. Two years ago I thought my friends were crazy when they convinced me to sign up for a half marathon, but I loved the training and I'm still going! I never would have imagined even considering a full marathon then. I lost 30 lbs, of which 10 came back but I'm headed back in the right direction now. As of today, I have 16 more pounds to lose. My first half marathon of the summer (this will be #8) is in late May.

    My goal is to run, any distance race, in all 50 states. 6/50 done. One new state scheduled this fall. It's a great excuse to travel!

    FR sent to some of y'all. I'm a distance runner. Dozens of races since '08. Currently training for a trail 25k next wk, Downhill marathon next month, 50k (31mi) in June, and about 10 more in 2016. Hoping to run a 80k, 100k (62mi) in July, August too.
    Always have room on my FR for distance runners.

    I put in for the Royal Parks half, but didn't get through the ballot :(

    Now trying to decide whether to aim for a Christmas half or to take advantage of a discount entry to a full marathon in 12 months time....
