For all those lone runners who are struggling.

Can you imagine running with people just like the amazing people and the superb mentors on this site.

All in the same boat who lift you when you're down, push you when you're flagging and congratulate you when you're winning. Thats what it's like running with a group.

I joined a group organised by volunteers from a local athletics club who run C25K several times through the year. You meet all sorts of people, all ages, all sizes but all with the same goal and I found running with that group a great help. I'm a fat old chap and It would never have ventured out running on my own. Also we have set times and days meeting Tuesday and Thursday evening and Saturday mornings so it's not so easy to say "oh I'll leave until tomorrow". I know it's not for everyone but for me it's a great way to do it. 👍

Good for you! Great to run with others when you're new to it all 🙂 Being in a group is helpful during the dark winter nights when you might otherwise huddle indoors. Our group love it when the head torches are brought out 🙂
