Running and Friends

A couple of weeks ago, I had an opportunity to go for a run with a really good friend of mine. We have trained together before so it was a lot like putting on your favorite sweatshirt that makes you feel warm and cozy. We accept each other for where we are at, push each other when needed and take a little break when we have to. I wish everyone could have a training partner like that, someone that ever, ever judges you, just gives you a little push when you need it and celebrates the victories with you and picks you up when you fall down. I carried that warm in me for a week afterwards, thank you partner :)
So my team, if you ever want to go bike riding or running (inside of course) and would like someone to just be with you, I'm your man (well not literally but it seemed weird to say woman!). I also go swimming but that is less likely to be something that you can do with a partner. I go to the TriLeisure most mornings, sometimes at five or six and sometimes a bit later like seven or eight (if I am not on day shift) and I invite all of you to speak up and say Hey, can I come? It doesn't matter what your fitness level or skills are, I don't care, if you only have 1/2 an hour that's okay too!  Of course, there is always time for a few forms afterwards :)
I am looking forward to hearing from you all :)

I'd be interested in running with you when I'm at home. But how do you run with a partner? Do you chat while you're running? And if so, doesn't that take away from the workout?

it doesn't have to be an all out run for the whole time, we could go for an easy jog, do wind sprints or just grunt at each other as we push ourselves, we'll make it work. What are you doing Friday morning at 5am?
