The thought of running with a group may seem alien if you’ve only ever run solo or if you’re a beginner. What if your paces don’t match up? What if you don’t want to chat constantly? And the one many runners fear: what if you get left behind by everyone else?
However, many of these concerns will be allayed once you find a like-minded group and start running together. And what’s more, there are so many brilliant benefits of group running: benefits you miss out on if you only ever head out to train by yourself.
