Workout Buddies

With apologies to the guys, is there anyone interested in motivating eachother as workout buddies. Its great that we have the weightloss check in, but I'm hoping we can motivate eachother with exercise. I thought about asking if I could join in with the guys, but we have different needs and most of all I don't want to invade their space.

I did a "boot camp" earlier this year and it was awesome for getting in shape. So I'm thinking we can post progress like faster/longer runs, etc and motivate each other that way.

Any other ideas or am I just shouting in the wind?

I run 1,5 km min per day , even 7 km (my record in 50 minuts)

I also do weight exercises

I want to have this body, !!!especially her legs!!! in addition, I can defend me

How about setting up a group on Runkeeper or MapMyRun?

How about it?

Ok, other then running, since the last thing I want to do is build muscle mass, what else can I do?

Running won't build muscle if you don't invest the proper amount of calories. I'd be interested in having a workout buddy. I'm trying to get rid of the those last two pesky inches from my waist.

I have to write a 20 page paper by friday at midnight. After that its game on for the next two months.

I'm looking forward to it. By the way your avatar looks like a cartoon version of mine. Cool yeah?

We rock short hair I guess...

I'm going to train like its a 10k, but I found a 5k to run at the end of October so that's my motivation...

Maddie Secutura · August 04, 2011, 08:23:41 AM

I need to find a 5k to compete in. It would be fun.

regan · August 04, 2011, 08:28:57 AM

google "<your nearest major city> 5k" that's what I did....

purplevelvet · August 04, 2011, 11:39:31 AM

active.com has lots of races listed, have a look

Maddie Secutura · August 04, 2011, 04:51:53 PM

I might do the Jack-O-Lantern run here in Washington.

regan · August 04, 2011, 05:16:14 PM

Mine is a "moonlight madness" run, sounds like the same thing?

Maddie Secutura · August 04, 2011, 05:24:00 PM

Probably. It's supposed to be a Halloween themed 5k walk/run. I want to see if I can break 19 mins.

Its been a couple months since I ran that far, took longer then 19 minutes though...

Maddie Secutura · August 05, 2011, 09:44:09 AM

I've not done that since I ran cross country in High School. I might go for a nice long run today, like 8 miles or so. Also I think this thread would be better off in the fitness section.

regan · August 05, 2011, 10:47:21 AM

Agreed.

I was hoping more people would join in, it seems to be just you and I though. Should we just take this private?

Maddie Secutura · August 05, 2011, 02:36:26 PM

Probably
