Hello. I am looking for walking/running/fitness friends on this site. My name is Meg. I am going to be 34 in a few days and I joined this site late December 2011 (just a couple of weeks ago). I am just now becoming active and finding out new things/navigating my way around this place. I want to eventually be a good/proper runner but for now I am starting with walking and some running. I want to be active and lose weight and eventually (this year) run in a 5, 10, 15 and maybe even a half/marathon by next year (or as soon as I am ready and prepared). I have done a couple of 5k races with my older brother in the past but since then I have gained weight and lost energy. I have become a vegetarian and have VERY recently began walking and doing in-home exercises. I WILL be working myslef up to bigger and better things this year (this month even). I am looking for friends to talk fitness, share goals with and keep in touch regarding fitness. I am married & have 4 children (sons:13, 8 in a couple days, 11 and a daughter 9). I want them to see a healthier happier Mom. I am excited for this journey...it won't be easy but if it was it wouldn't be worth it.
