I NEED A TEAM!

I'm looking for a team that I can fit into with people that have similar goals, enjoied activities, ect.

Here's a little about me: I'm a 24 yr old stay-at-home who does in-home childcare/preschool durring the week. I have been over weight my entire life and most of it has been that food was my security blanket to deal with the abuse I suffered from my father up until I got married 4 years ago. I am currently 200 lbs and live in Alaska. I can't afford a gym membership (it's over $100 a month up here) and fresh/organic foods are REALLY expencive up here, if you can even find them. I try to keep my portions smallish but not so small that I'm hungry often and grouchy or rudown. I have set a personal goal to run a 1/2 marathon in August and plan on running a few 5K and 10K races before. I'm new to running but not new to exercise. I worked at a gym through high school and sub-taught quite a few classes and training sessions. I KNOW how to work out and KNOW how to get my body back in shape but it's always a motivation problem and now I'm doing the running thing and I'm not sure how to train for that or if I'm even doing it right. So That's me in a nutshell, so is there any teams that I fit into?
