Beginners women's running / socialising!


AmyH

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I've just moved to Perth, and wondering if anyone knows of any beginners women's running groups? (preferably in the northern suburbs, where I'm living)

 

I've not run for absolutely ages, so not looking for anything formal or too serious! It's to make friends as much as get fit really :)

 

If anyone out there fancies joining me on a semi-regular run, then it would be great to get an informal group going (if there isn't one out there already!), or even just find a running buddy or two. I'm 29 and of average fitness, but certainly won't be running any marathons any time soon :) I live in Kallaroo, so quite far north of the city, but will be working in Joondalup, so could meet there too.

 

Drop me a line if you're interested or know of any existing groups!

 

Thanks,

Amy

Hi Amy!

 

I'm really keen to get back into some kind of exercise routine but it's been a while. I've been having a look at group fitness classes but they can be pretty dear so something like this would be ideal for me. I live in Beechboro (out towards Midland NOR) but also work in Joondalup so that could be handy!

 

I'll send you my number through private message.

Hi I live Scarborough way, am just getting settled and am looking to start running/ walking again. I can meet any night after work, maybe some point along west coast highway, maybe Hillaries?

Hi Ali,

 

Sorry not to have replied sooner. I'm still in the process of getting a car sorted but once I do, meeting at Hilarys could work for me (otherwise I can't get there after work). Shall I get in touch with you when I'm sorted?

I live in Bayswater, Im a terrible runner, my mate used to drag me out a couple of evenings a week back in the UK, for a gossip n jog which I miss a lot now Im over here.

 

I want to start exercising a bit now summer is here, legs could do with a bit of toning ;)

 

Had a game of tennis on the weekend with OH which was good fun, but hard work with 2 kids in tow - if anyone fancies partnering up. Intend to start swimming, probably at Bayswater Waves too sometime to, apparently they do aquarobics there too which I might give a go.

Really good that you are trying to start this but one problem may be that in the not too distant future, like in a month, it could be far too hot to run at night. Mornings are the go but appreciate how hard that might be to arrange. And when I say mornings I mean 6.00am or 6.30am when it is cool enough to run. Not sure how many of you have been through a Perth summer?

Hi everyone,

 

Have you managed to organise anything?

 

I would be really interested in joining in (although am shockingly out of shape at the moment!).

 

I work part time in Marmion and live in Jindalee so can do early morning or pm's some days and any time other days.

 

 

Look forward to hearing back :-)

Ok ladies let's get this happening. After all being busy over the last month it's time to get moving. I will be at the sorrento beach car park at 6 pm this coming Thursday. It's next to Hillaries. I propose a social stroll first off so that we have enough breath to actually say hi and then maybe a coffee across the road after. Please let me know if you can make it so I know who to look out for?
