Day 285 - October 12, 2009
My coworkers and I have formed a lunchtime running group that is going to run together on Mondays and Wednesday. I'm really excited that this will allow us to run in the daylight through the fall and winter months. Our abilities are quite varied, but we will start together each day and go from there. Today there were three of us and we chose an out and back course where we each turned around at a different distance. The faster runners ran further, and the guys just starting their running ran a shorter course. It worked out pretty well. Hopefully we will get a few more people out on Wednesday and we can hold each other accountable to getting those two runs in a week. I also think we will try and run some races together later in the fall and train for a longer race in the spring. I'll try and post updates as we go along and let you know how we are progressing.

What a cool idea! How varied is your group in terms of ability? Is everyone a runner to some degree? Or are there some true newbies? I'm interested to see how it goes...
The two other guys are seasonal runners - they only run in the fall-spring (ie no running in the summer). They are middle of the pack runners, but definitely not in running shape at the moment. I expect next week we will have a few other casual runners join us.
That is an awesome deal. Running groups are great when you get some committed folks. (not that kind of committed...)
