Running is Better With Friends!

On Friday, I tried my first run with a buddy! Til now, Kim has been my football/beer and wings/shopping friend/colleague, but I had no idea she was into running. She agreed to do my long runs with me once a week, which I'm sure will make them much less boring! Her particular brand of offbeat humor and hilarious cynicism could help anyway make their way through a torturous long run! Unfortunately, this requires a long trek to the LES, but it's worth it to have an awesome running buddy! We did 3.1 miles in order to prep me for the 5k on Sunday. It was hot and hard and I was extremely thirsty, but the awesome company helped me keep it moving. ProTip: Running is fun, but running with friends is better. Right now, Kim is definitely in the running for the best workout buddy I've ever had (yep, terrible pun, give me a break, I'm a few days behind).
