Running Together

[Today’s run: Watson Road]

Three days a week I run with my wife.  She just started running last fall and she is doing very well with it.

For years and years I only ran by myself.  Then I started running on Saturdays with the Boardtown Runners group in Starkville.  And now I run more than half the time with someone else.  I like it both ways.  The variety is really nice.  And it  helps me get variations in pace; when I run by myself it is pretty much at the same speed all the time.

When we run in the morning, she knows that my hearing is not so good, and I know that her eyesight in low light is not so good.  So we carry on a regular conversation,

“Car in front!”

“I see it!”

“Car behind!”

“Ok!”
