Nothing's better than the wind to your back, the sun in front of you, and your friends beside you.
Aaron Douglas Trimble, Runner
As you have heard a hundred times, I hate to run alone so the above quote today I felt was perfect for me.
It is hard for me to imagine how others get out and run and train all alone! Oh don't get me wrong, I have some in my group who will get up and run 20 miles all by themselves. I can just tell you that I wouldn't do it! A marathon would not ever have occured if I had to do that. I love to run but I love the company of someone right beside me. Like social drinkers, I am a social runner!
Happy running!

Hey there! New to your blog (found you on RunnerDude's blog). I've done almost all of my training for all 4 of my marathons by myself. I HATED it at first, but now I'm at the point where I like to be able to push myself in my own way on those (boring) 20 milers! That said, I'm JEALOUS that I don't have a running group to run with for the occasional social run!! Happy running to you to!
There's nothing like a long run with a bunch of your buddies. Some how those long runs don't seem nearly as far when you share them with others. But you know...even when I run solo, I'm not really alone, I often find myself thinking about the numerous runners who've share their stories with me. They inspire me on a long solo run! Happy Thanksgiving!
