New and looking for friends!

posted 10 months ago | Report

I'm new to dailymile and running! i need some friends on here for motivation and just some people to talk to in the good times and the bad. I'm training to run in the 5k next year and i've never been much of a runner before. I started a program similar to couch to 5k and i actually have been enjoying it so far. So be so kind as to add me on here! :-D

    Congrats on your progress and your goal! That's great! I understand, I too was never a runner. I started in Jan and have completed a few 5Ks this year, so I know you can do it! Just take your time and do me over anxious to add miles to your routine, go slow. :-)

    Group motivation (and sometimes commiseration!) always gives me an extra little push, too. When I'm jogging, I know I'm a LOT less likely to cut it short when I'm not doing it alone. Welcome! FR sent. :)
