Kathleen: I lucked out. My old neighbourhood was very much like that. Hardly knew anyone there for 14 years. This is a wildly different experience.

Julie; I need that book. I didn’t plan this and I know I am totally jumping in. Ran it again tonight a bit slower so I think I like the idea but absolutely I need guidance. Thanks!

I barely know my neighbours. Good for you for running, I can’t run either. I’d like to work myself up to being able to do a marathon.

Last year, I worked up to 2K to do a run with my daughter. The program that I really love and is highly recommended by many people is “Couch to 5K.” It helps people build up to longer runs while avoiding injury.

Wonderful that you have such a friendly neighbourhood.

I totally remember the first time I ran a distance of any significance, it’s a great accomplishment! 😀

My fitness goals are right on track, thanks to great support from a trainer and a job that keeps me focused on my health every single day.

It is great to have the added inspiration of a lovely neighborhood to check out and friendly neighbors to do it with, but it is all on you to take that first step and you did. Congrats!! I need to take some inspiration from that and work on my own growth this year..

That is SO awesome! How you did 1.5K out of the blue, I’ll never know. I could NOT do that myself. Walk yes…run no. Keep that up and you will be so fit by the end of summer. That is fantastic about your new neighbours..they sound wonderful. So happy for you and your family that you found such a great place to call home 🙂
