Hi Sooze, and welcome! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/wave.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="wave"><br><br>
Sorry to hear about your injury, but glad to hear that you're not discouraged and you're looking forward to more running in your future!<br><br>
Oh yeah, and the beer:<br><br><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/occasion14.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="occasion5">

Ah, yes. Now THAT will help the injury. Mmm. Beeeeerrrr...<br><br>
Thanks for the warm welcome! Really, it's just what I needed... because I actually <i>have</i> been feeling a little discouraged. I mean, I <span style="text-decoration:underline;">know</span> a lot of people make a full recovery from a sfx and go on to be happy, pain-free runners - but I'm really disappointed because I felt like I was just starting to get into my rhythm and then BOOM, here I am on my ass with my leg up on ice. I even had it suggested to me - by a professed running-hater - that perhaps this was "nature's way" of telling me I shouldn't be a runner.<br><br>
So, as you can see, I really need to be among my own kind right now! Thanks so much - I already feel better. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">

hi everyone,<br>
just wanted to introduce myself - I've been running for a few months, although certainly not very fast or far. I'm planning to do my first 5k next Saturday, but it will involve waking up at 6 am, so we'll see how that goes <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> Anyway, you all seem like a friendly bunch, and I really need some extra motivation, so maybe you guys can help inspire me to get myself out of bed next weekend!

Hi all,<br>
I'm new to running. Started about a month ago and am really bad at it. Using a heart monitor to time my run/walk intervals. Given my current progress, I probably should be using a pacemaker instead. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> Thanks! BTW, you'll find more people in the Post Race Tent and Running Clubs area of the site if you haven't already been perusing the area.

Hello,<br>
I'm from Charleston WV USA. I recently restarted running and am loving it. I'm running about 20 MPW. I recently lost just over 30 lbs. and I'm hoping the loss of the next 30 will help me run a sub 2:30:00 1/2 mary. I hope to do that in late April. Everyone seems very very nice here and I look forward to getting to know everyone.<br><br>

Congrats on the weight loss! Thats awesome!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
If you are training for 1/2, there is a group in the training plan forum that are following the 1/2 training program here. You might check it out and see if you want to join them for some fun and support!<br><br>
