No need to feel obligated to talk to said running friend/group while running (that's too hard to do anyway), but having a pace-setter and being with somebody helps with accountability and the will to keep going especially when you want to stop or cut out early, etc.
I am running my long run with a friend today. Will try it out.

Earlier poster that was referring to treadmill running, music, and out and backs. I’m out of town and ran at a high school track yesterday. Forgot my watch music wasn’t working. Freezing out (with a recently broken hand) and no gloves! Still a good workout off my bike for me (did this inside) and sometimes I go without music since I won’t have it at events. Variation is the spice of life!

What works for me when I’m bored running is to alternative 30 breaths at a full on pace and then 30 breaths at a slow recovery. Why 30? Why not a timed interval? Not sure but that is what works for me.
I have never run with music or podcast but I could see myself enjoying that too.
