Introduction

I do not currently run, but have been wanting to for some time. I ride a mountain bike a lot, so I am not starting totally from scratch, but I need to learn basic technique and really just learn how to run ... :-)

Tell us about your running. When did you start? How often do you run? How far?

I ran a dozen or so times in College (and that was 20 years ago or so). Since then I have fallen out of shape and gotten back into shape again. i have been wanting to start running again for some time. Now is the time!

What are your goals with regards to running and this group?

I would like to be able to run 5K whenever I want.

What other sports/activities are you involved in?

I ride a mountain bike a lot and help organize a mountain bike meetup group.

Anything else you want us to know?

I want to run for better fitness and to help me be a better mountain biker. Cross Training I guess :-)

What John is saying about this Meetup Group

This group is a great place to meet people who are wanting walk, learn to run, or get back into running.
