Running with friends

Running with friends is the best feeling! I love my solo runs but I like to shake it up by spending a few hours with a pal on the trails in Red Deer.

Laura and I have been friends for years. We have a lot in common and she’s an amazing person. Our schedules don’t always mesh but when they do we like to go for a run in the city. 

A mini photoshoot was in order after our run on the trails on Monday.


I honestly do not know how to pose when I am having my picture taken. 

Laura is so pretty and photogenic.  

It was a hot once but fortunately we had lots of shade. 

Nothing beats spending time on the trails with friends. It helps pass the time and miles and makes the runs even more memorable than on solo runs. It also helps to strengthen the bonds of friendship. It’s funny that I often learn more about a person on a run than in other social gatherings.

I think it’s the bonding over the shared experience. We can encourage one another when one is feeling low or need a little push that day.

Do you like to run with friends? I would love to hear your comments below.
