Hello,

Let me introduce myself, my name is Roge Cuijpers, 25 years old, from the Netherlands. Since 3 weeks I started working as an expat in Sofia, I live close to the Vasil Levski stadium in Lozenetz.

My whole life I have been crazy about sports and have been training fitness, cycling, taekwondo, badminton and running, preferably every day.

At this moment I'm doing fitness in Boevski gym and run in the weekend in Borisovo garden. I like to do both interval training on the track but run also long distances (half marathon). I'm considering moving to a different gym, cause Boevski is quite crowded and expensive.

I'm looking for a fitness/ running buddy (m/f) cause I'm getting bored of training every time alone, furthermore I would like to meet some nice friends. It doesn't matter how experienced you are, as long you are motivated in doing sports. Training with 2 or more persons is just much better for your motivation than training alone. And be careful because I'm a crazy motivator! Haha.


Okay hope to find some other active minded people.

Best,

Rogé

Ok Thanks for the info.

I will check it out soon, however according to the website it's quite expensive, so if someone has other suggestions they are more than welcome?

I'm a bit disappointed that no-one seems interested in doing running or training together. I suppose their should be some active people on this forum? Or is everyone just busy posting here on the forum Razz

Ciao ciao

Roge,

I am also looking for a running partner/club to join, I am in training for the UK half ironman in June this year but have not been able to get out since I arrived here a couple of weeks ago.

I will probably go to Spartak occasionally for training as already use the pool there Smile

Currently unable to go running as have a heavy cold and need to shift this but perhaps in a week or so we could meet up and have a run. Bear in mind that I am not that quick and only started running late last year, running 1x10K and 2 half marathons.

Let me know if you are interested and then we will see if we can meet up soon.

Regards,
David

Hello Roge,

Are you also looking for cycling (mountain biking) and badminton partners?
