    Hi, I'm also in the UK, feel free to add me. I am currently on week 6 of the C25K program, which has been great at getting me into running, although to be fair it's more of a shambling jog than a run! I'm planning on running a 5k in July, hopefully with a bit better form than I have now :)

    Hi, feel free to add me. I'm from the North East and have been on here a few months now, trying to break the yo-yo cycle. Haven't got much to lose, just finding it hard to get back on track, so we can motivate each other ;0)

    feel free to add me mate. im in south wales, have recently taken up running as well. you should take a look at the couch 2 5k site with the NHS. it gets none runners running 5k within 9 weeks or less. i did that and im now looking at entering the cardiff 10k in september..
    welcome to mfp and good luck to you

    I'm not from the UK, but lived there (and miss it!) and have a similar weight loss goal. I have lost about 1 stone at this point, but have a least another stone to go in order to get where I want to be. I haven't been on MFP forums very long and feel I need some support as I'm starting to fall off the wagon, so to speak. It's not a complete fall, more like a slow glide and I'd like to stop it!!

    if you're looking to burn cals and build up your fitness i would seriously think about starting c25k it gets very good ratings. im in week one of my fitness pal and looking to lose 60lb.c25k builds you up from couch to 5k in 9 weeks stating you off with walking and running mixed until after 9 weeks you should b running 5k running only its also an app on most smart phones, i apologise if you new all that but we all need much help and support tips and ideas. im uk based so you can add me if you wish
