Someone, or a group to follow/chase... the occasional bit of chit-chat so I know they know I exist as a club member  and then praise if I do actually achieve something, but as has been said, being praised when you're actually performing badly is annoying and can easily feel patronising... |

Richard, you're not a beginner anymore. Time to move on, mate.

Ohhhhh, but what happens if one of us wakes up and the other goes to sleep at the same time. What do our friends do then? :eek:

I don't like it when I am told to dig in especially when I can't dig anymore and my lungs are about to burst out of my body.
I can see the patting on the back as being patronising if you are already an established runner, but just starting off I don't think would be bad just as encouragement to keep them going and turn up again the next week :eek:
