Starting C25k and looking for friends!

posted 12 months ago | Report

I'm starting C25k this week, and I was looking to meet some people who are also starting/doing C25k to keep up my motivation. I have tried C25k in the past and quit, so this time I want to make myself completely accountable and give myself every opportunity to succeed so that I have no excuses.

I'm 20 years old and have a two year old daughter. I have a really packed schedule because I work and am simultaneously going to school to become an elementary school teacher. Right now I'm at about 190 lbs and want to bring it down to at least 160, but more importantly I just feel more fit and healthy. It's really disappointing when I can't carry my daughter for long periods of time or even chase after very far. Some other fitness things I like to do are Zumba and spinning (I don't know how to ride an actual bike! Yikes!).

Enough about me I think? :) I want to know more about you!

    Hi Courtney! I know you posted this a while ago, but I just started couch to 5K a month ago and I'd love to hear how you're doing with it. I also want to meet some other beginner runner friends.
