    Hi everyone!
    I'm Kathy and live in Wilmington, DE. 2011 was my first year of running, and I did three 5K runs, with a break in between for some physical therapy. My friend who got me into running has a couple of races planned for us in 2012, including a relay marathon in May. I've got to figure out how to train and increase my distance through the winter. I also like swimming at the Y and weight training. I've done a little bit of New Rules of Lifting for Women and am trying to find the time to continue the program. My ultimate goal is a triathlon, but I need to buy a bike. :tongue: Oh well, I have plenty of time to get there.

    Kimberly here - live just south of Boston and work in the city which Iove.

    Mostly here to try to watch what I'm eating and get back to exercising more regularly - lose a few pounds.
    I used to faithfully run about 5k @ the gym - 3-4 times a week. Then I slacked off... big time! Need to get back where I was.

    Last winter I was very active snowboarding till I dislocated my elbow. All healed but now I'm leary this year - I may just venture out in soft snow. I think the hard icy ground contributed to my injury. Happened on the smallest hill around, Blue Hill LOL. That was in Feb... then we planned a wedding and traveled....Then we got married... then we moved two separate homes into one new to us 3rd home slowly, very slowly lol... finally settled into our routine and I can concentrate more on fitting in exercise.

    Feel free to add me :) Have a good weekend!

    Hi,
    I'm Chrissy from Plymouth, Massachusetts.
    I run 5 & 10Ks (slowly) and this May will do the Tough Mudder in Vermont.
    This past year, I have steadily gained weight and my clothes barely fit...can you say "muffin' top"? I really need to kick it in gear!
    Feel free to add me on!

    Hey everyone. Kim from Berkshires Ma.. just a bit north of the spfld. area. feel free to add me. :) I am GOING to make it to the Turkey Trot this year . woot!
  • Jim from Belleville, NJ here ... if anyone is training in the area keep me posted ...
  • My name is Kim and I live on the coast of Maine. I'm not as fond of winter as I used to be...that's when I was more active during the winter.

    I own 2 small business's that keep me more than busy enough, I do a lot of volunteer work with my therapy dog. We are currently working in one of the local schools as READ team. We go in and we have 3 children a week that will sit and read to my dog.

    I find I never seem to have enough time to do anything that I used to do to keep myself thin. It seems like I'd have to get up when it's dark and go to bed when it's dark.
  • I be Dillan from the 603 Concord Nh nice to meet everyone send a friend request if you want!

    Hi, I am John and I live in Mechanicsburg, PA. Feel free to add me. The nutrition tracker is a wonderful tool. I had back surgery on Jan 10, 2012 and need to be careful and the use of the tool has been very helpful during this relatively sedentary time.
