We all know the advantages of having someone to workout with. Someone for company and accountability. Things change a little bit when you start training for endurance events like marathons or triathlons. Suddenly...you're friends think your nuts and everyone is intimidated to workout with you. It is absolutely priceless for a girl to find another girl who will train and compete in these crazy events! It is awesome when a 10 mile bike ride followed by a 2 mile run goes by so quickly you don't even realize how far you have gone because it turned into a total gab-fest! My running buddy is also my camping buddy. She totally rocks!
When I ask..."hey...wanna run as fast as you can to the top of the tallest tower in Nebraska?" Wanna know who says "ok"....
THIS GIRL
Then she totally crushes the competition!
When I ask..."Hey..wanna fundraise thousands of dollars to be donated to a charity to fight cancer and then run a marathon/" Wanna know who says "ok"....
THIS GIRL
When I ask..." Wanna travel hundreds of miles away from home to spend several days away from your children all to run 26.2 miles?" Wanna know who says "ok"....
THIS GIRL
THIS GIRL
then she does the entire photo shoot with a smile on her face!
I don't mean to brag....but I have the best running buddy!

Aw Jenni...you're blushing! Those pics are cute...you gave me permission to use your pictures for the blog!!
I loved how positive this post was and also it was great to see how supportive you both are to each other. When I go swimming I love to have someone else with me it makes the whole experience much more fun. :-)
It seems that you aren't just training, but also having fun, which is very inspiring.
