    Somehow im a motivator?

    Part of my weekday routine, i get up at 6 a.m. and run a mile which is about 2 laps around my neighborhood. Then in the afternoon around 6 p.m. i walk a mile.

    A few days ago a somewhat heavy set neighbor of mine asked if he could run with me because he wanted to get in shape before he started high school. Ok, i figured no problem a little company won't slow me down. The next morning he shows up with his mom and sister. They all woke up at 6 and ran with me in the morning, then walked with me later that afternoon. And now today, after a few days have passed, i've got about half of the neighborhood on a workout routine with me simply because one person noticed i run every day.

    A bit weird considering i've never really seen myself as a motivator, once i get going, i'll just leave people behind.

    And no this isn't a fail troll thread, this really happened over the course of the last few days.

    As of now there's about 15-20 people each morning running, and in the afternoon about 25-30 walking. And there isn't like a neighborhood watch(whatever it's called) or community events, people just started joining in.

    A mile isn't really even a run, I mean I don't understand waking up and getting into running clothes and everything for something that takes 5-8 mins or so.

    That's pretty cool that you started all the people to go running with you. Meet any nice people?

    That's depressing for me, because the neighborhood I lived in (Michigan) was all stereotypical niggers that would beat the fuck out of me if they saw me running in the morning :<
