TLDR - Will you run outside somewhere beautiful with me? I do not bite.
I have been doing various 5 mile running routes around this beautiful city for over 7 years but never with anyone. Running outside is gorgeous and a great change up from the treadmill. Luckily I can get myself going and motivated and constantly improving alone but I think it would be more fun / improve faster with a friend.
I am looking for a friend to help each other constantly improve running times and hold each other accountable for workouts. None of the people I know here are super into running like that or choose it as their main workout of choice.
I typically do 5 miles in the 40ish minutes range, plus or minus a few minutes depending on weather, wind, recent lifestyle choices lol (drinks, ice cream, sleep etc - Miami is a fun city). Ideally looking for a friend in that time range but if you are a little slower that is ok. I can be patient and help you improve, if you are faster hopefully you will help me improve.
I don’t really care if you are male or female, or what you look like, or if you speak English. I know a tiny bit of Spanish but want to learn more (neccesito ayuda).
I’m a 35 year old white male (goofy white) in the downtown area. I’ll run with anyone who is nice and tries hard but for an age range maybe 21 - 60 is appropriate.
I can show you the 5 mile routes I think are cool and you can show me your routes as well.
Send me a DM or comment here and tell me just a bit about yourself. After we connect, if you’re down we can just simply make a day and time to meet at the entrance to the Venetian or somewhere similar and get started, it doesn’t have to be super formal. We can decided if we want to be friends later lol.
I know there are running clubs but I don’t think I’m super into that, not hating I just don’t think it’s for me.
