    Me too! I'm a new runner, and already addicted to the feeling of freedom. I have two 5k's coming up soon, and hoping to be ready for a 15k in the fall. Need more running friends! Especially low carbers!

    Hi,

    Fairly new to running myself. Did 5km Race for Life back in June (this is the first time I've managed to run it all) - and although I'm very slow (5km takes me 35-38 mins), I love it. I am slowly building up my distance. I regularly (3 times per week) manage 5km each time, so 15km per week. I love it, definitely caught the running bug. :-)

    I have started to add 0.5km to one run per week, and on Monday this week, I did manage 5.6km without stopping. So it's definitely going the right way. I am building up to a 10km - although I've no event booked per say. I'd like to be able to do a 10km run at weekends, keeping my shorter runs (3-5km at lunchtimes midweek) - that's the aim anyway.

    Add me if you like... and good luck with it xx

    I finished C25K over 2 years ago and have done lots of 5Ks, 10 milers and even a half. Getting ready for the OBX Half in November. Running is fantastic - and I never, ever thought I would say that. It's the only exercise that really gets the weight off for me. Feel free to add me - I love seeing all these running replies on here.

    Hi! I just started running and became addicted very fast! Yesterday for the first time I ran 5.15 miles after last week getting up to 4 miles. I bought a pair of running shoes because they were cheap (store return, last pair) and it has changed my life in the past three weeks! I'm doing mini-goals - right now I can do 3 miles 5-6 days/week. Next goal is 4 miles 5-6/days a week. Feel free to add me if you want ;)

    That's what I do! I walk at a pretty steady pace and then I jog for a bit! But this morning I grab the wrong shoes and had on the shape ups! Not good at all! Those hills really kicked my butt.

    I really enjoy running and the feeling you get from it. I like to run outside and dread treadmills. I like having the option to choose my own route and powering myself through the run. Love it!

    Hello! All My name is Annitte (Annette is how my name is pronounced) I'm looking to lighten the load only a little bit, but my main goal is to be physically fit! I'm working on stamina and muscle tone! I want abs that are tight! So far I run/ walk in the am and in the evening. I do my arms, back and abs one day and legs the next... If I ever get up the nerve I will post some pics. :flowerforyou:

    I've done a few 5Ks before and am just back into running again. Finally can run for 30 mins straight since last week. I have my 1st 5K in 3 years next week.

    Anyone on here feel free to friend me. Would love to have a network of runners and I'm getting back into it.
