#11 is to get Casey off your case...

Here are the top 10 reasons to go to the Team in Training Saturday morning group runs:

1) After the run, you get to eat peanut butter filled pretzels, which are the best thing in the entire world, especially right after you run.
2) The coaches and mentors are there, so you can get all kinds of good advice and support.
3) You get to meet Honored Heroes (blood cancer survivors) and other really positive, inspirational people.
4) The bike path is mostly flat, and very beautiful place to run.
5) Everyone is super nice and supportive.
6) There are so many people there running (and walking) at so many different paces, you are bound to find someone to run with.
7) There was a cute guy there the other week and I think he might be coming back.
8) You run so much farther there than you ever would on your own. And it actually goes by fast because you are having fun and socializing. Even 10 miles!
9) Did I mention the peanut butter filled pretzels?
10) When you run 5+ miles before 9am on Saturday morning, it completely absolves you of feeling like you have to do anything else productive for the weekend.

Do you see how she works, people? This is how she got me to rationalize running in the first place...
