From here, you'll be able to search for Runkeeper accounts you can follow by selecting the magnifying glass in the top right corner. To follow a user, simply select the blue Follow button. ![](https://help.runkeeper.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.runkeeper.comhcarticle_attachments12390664657677-1.png?width=340&height=736&name=support.runkeeper.comhcarticle_attachments12390664657677-1.png)![](https://help.runkeeper.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.runkeeper.comhcarticle_attachments12390664778509-1.png?width=340&height=736&name=support.runkeeper.comhcarticle_attachments12390664778509-1.png) When trying to follow users who have set their privacy settings to private, you will see *Requested* upon hitting the blue follow button.
