Hi all!
I just found you all from the Cool Running forum Profiles! I was making my own.
Ive been running about 2.5 weeks now. Hated running in high school and college, but in the last 7 months I have been walking and working out to help me lose weight and discovered running. I am obsessed!
I am working on the Couch to 5K program from the Cool Running site and it is working well for me! I run on a treadmill for now, but when the weather gets better I plan to get out in the sun!
Looking forward to meeting you all and learning a LOT!

WELCOME Jovi!
You've found a great place to get support and encouragement for running!
It sounds like you've gotten "the bug".
I wish you all the luck!

Hi Everyone!
Thanks so much to you all for the welcome! I have a feeling this will be a fun place to hang out! I didnt have a whole lot of time yesterday to browse as much as I would have liked to, so today I will spend some more time!
Akern - YES!! I am a HUGE Bon Jovi Fan! HUGE! Since 1984 when "Runaway" hit the airwaves! My kids are fans and my MP3 player is loaded with BonJovi when I run. My car even has the JoviMom Plates (Gift from my family) and I am hoping for the frame "Not Old Just Older, Powered by Bon Jovi" for Mother's day!
I will be leaving shortly to get my kids to school then off to do my run! I will be back to check in later!

Good luck with the couch to 5k program
Bon Jovi, is doing quite well, and getting a lot of face time locally with him owning an Arena Football Team.
