    Let’s all go to the happy hour after this, they have two-for’s and half price apps!
    I was here until last year, got injured training for a marathon (I was a 90 min halfer) and the whole thing got derailed. Now I’m back with more pounds than I ever had and fear of getting back into running. All I have is support for y’all. Feel free to add me.

    My first forays into running were waddling over 5km in an hour. I am still not exceptionally fast but getting faster all the time! You couldn't possibly be worse than I was when I started!!

    Sorry I didn't notice it. Too old to pick up on small details I guess.

    Careful, this group is getting old and creaky, but we are going down with a hell of a fight and showing our 20s how we wasted our time away!! Amazing when you can feel better in your 40- Just by eating better, keeping your body moving and not waking up feeling like *kitten*.

    Welcome!!!!!

    I certainly can't drink like I did in my 20's! At least it is cheaper this way :tongue:

    I'll be 34 soon. I started going to gym two days a week. As a beginner my heart rate is bloody high during exercise... add me if you don't mind that I might suddenly die in heart attack!
