Would anyone like to join a 10km running/jogging group?

[Goldsgirl]

Hi,

I would like to form a group for running max 10km with like minded people. I'm no athlete and my comfort zone is 5km at about 7mins/km. Every now and then I take a mad notion to enter a 10km race and then feel I have to up my game a bit! Why I do this I have no idea as I really hate getting out of breath!

If anyone would like to join in for motivation/encouragement and a bit of camaraderie please reply and I will try and work out how to set up a group. 

Thanks!

You can count me in.

Hi @Extremefit !

Great to hear from you! Now I need to work out how to create a group and add you!! 

I'll reply here once I have done that....

Best wishes!

You will need to create the group (it will be a closed group), after you created the group then you will need to add me  and others as a friend before you are able to invite me/other to the group. 

I was looking into this last night and created a group to test it out.

Hi @Extremefit ,

I'm really sorry I haven't been in touch about the group, just been super busy this week.... Anyway I will try and do it at the weekend . We have a great weather forecast for tomorrow so I'm planning to head out for an early 5k. Fingers crossed I can put a bit of oomph into it!

Hi Everyone, 

I have finally set up the group!  

@Extremefit , I have sent you a friend request.  @OrionDLord , I have not been able to find you - do you have another username?

Anyone else who wishes to join, please send me a friend request and I can add you.

Fingers crossed this will work out!

Is this still a group!? I'd like to join

[Goldsgirl]

Hi @RickyRockHard 

I really want to set up this group but I just cannot work out how to do it! I don't know how to add friends and it's not very intuitive! It seems as if the friend names are not the same as the names which appear on the forum?!?!

Any clues gratefully received!

@Goldsgirl for that purpose I think Strava is a much better place to create such a group.
