You should train with him. Give him the impression you’re actually interested in his life.

Can explain these stats? Does 8.5 @ 9.45 mean an average of 9.45 mins per mile?
That's exactly right.

7.25 @ 9:04 in 67 degrees
Cooler temps and lower humidity take make a huge difference for me.

At the end of the day, I find the elliptical machine has pretty much replaced my running because it's effective and less demanding.
I still run from the cops and my ex-wife, though.
