Group Run

I've run twice so far this week and I'll probably run again tomorrow or Saturday. 3 days is pretty good for me, unfortunately. I should be doing 3 times a week minimum. It's only going to get harder as it gets colder. I can't stand running on the tredmill. This Tuesday I did a group run at with a Beach Peach Running Co store that is nearby. I was nervous to run with other people but I ended up being really glad I went! I parked and as I was getting out of my car I saw a bunch of runners jogging...so I sprinted over and joined in the pack. Perfect timing! I need to work for being on time. I ended up doing 3 miles in 30 minutes and I felt really strong doing it. I definitely could have ran farther. Afterwards, I went in the store and got a free hat, bag and night reflector from Saucony. Yay for freebies! I can't wait to go back next Tuesday. Chatting with other people really made the run fly by.

Do you like to talk when you run? Or do you prefer to only listen to your ipod? I like to do both. A mix is perfect. Have you ever gone on a big group run?
