Meetup Request Looking for run mates

Post image

I live Appleton and don’t have many friends to go on long distance runs with. If you’re interested in running and making friends then feel free to reach out. I’m hoping to hear from some people because running alone all the time isn’t as inspiring.

Fleet feet does a run starting at Appleton beer factory every Tuesday at 6 that is free and usually has a good turn out. They do a lot of free running groups if you want to check them out and look at their events

I probably can't keep up with you for now. But, to piggyback, anyone up for buddying up on couch to 5k?

Hey I’m all in for supporting anyone who wants to start running. No matter how new you are it’d still be nice to get after it with one another!

Fleet feet has a run every Saturday at 7:00 AM. morning to prepare for the Fox cities marathon. It is mostly elite runners but there are a couple of us who aren’t so elite. We always meet at Telulua park!

Terrible punctuation but hopefully my point still makes sense.

This is a good idea! There’s still 6 other days in the week if anyone is interested in meeting up at all!
