in Introduce Yourself
I'm looking for friends from the Pacific Northwest.

It would be nice to hear about any local fitness events such as 5ks.

Thanks!

    What part of Oregon/Washington are you guys from?

    I'm recently moved to Vancouver, WA from Longview and went to college over in Ellensburg, WA.

    Seattle, Washington right here!

    You JUST missed a super cool looking 5k, the Zombie Run. I was going to participate but I was out of town.

    Seattle here. There is a Seattle group and a PNW group, though I'm not sure how much traffic they get these days

    Bremerton WA here! A few 5K's just finished up around here...but I would think more are scheduled. The Seattle Marathon (a 5K) is in November.... For the Seattle area, here is a good site with listings: http://www.my-pang.net/applications/my-pang/information/Running-Events/Seattle-body.php

    Good luck!

    I SAW that! I just re-started my C25k and it would have been too soon. I'm hoping it happens again next year because I'll be there

    I'm in Redmond, WA. I usually use active.com to search for events - I don't really do 5k's as I don't like to just run, but there are a good number of mud & obstacle course runs to choose from around here. I'll be at Hell Run for the 2nd time this year, Tone Loc will be performing ;)

    Just a little outside Seattle, in Renton here. One of my friends just did the Color Run a short time ago. I'm looking forward to doing the Zombie Run and Color Run, next time they're in/near Seattle.
