Grateful for Fellow Runners

I failed a bit on my commitment to gratefulness this week.  We had the credit union GAC and I didn't carve out the time that I should have.  However, today, I'm back at it and I'm grateful for fellow runners.
One of the great parts of attending the GAC is reconnecting with credit union colleagues from across the country.  One of the brightest stars of our industry, Jeff Russell, is also a runner and he was kind enough to commit to running with me yesterday morning.
I haven't had a lot of people to run with in my life.  I had a dear friend in college who was a very compatible running partner.  My former boss, John Normandeau, took up running and we were able to run several races together.  Beyond that, running has mostly been a solo sport for me.  So, it was really fantastic to have someone to run with yesterday morning.  Having someone to chat with really makes the miles tick by faster and it's just more fun.  It was one of the highlights of my week.
Thanks Jeff!  Happy running.
