As life tries to return to normal, I am excited to go back to my running group. There are so many benefits to running with a group. I recently started running with a group training for a marathon. While I may not sign up for a marathon, it’s great to be out with people with running goals. My favorite part though is the way each mile passes away quickly because everyone Is engaged in conversations. It just takes a few runs before everyone gets to know each other and begins to develop relationships. People talk about their families, jobs, and running experiences. Each mile passes by as the group talks and running just seems second to the friends you are making. Now, I am generally an introvert, but this is a time that is unique and so enjoyable. Each person has at least one common goal all while bringing a different story to the run. If you never experienced a running group, this may be your time to find one!
