I just ran a race (didn't "race", just ran it) with a friend who is very very much faster than I am. She assured me that she would just run alongside me - and she did! Totally classy, and she even let me cross the finish line ahead of her.

I have had a friend visit who I'm much faster than, and who was nervous about running with me. But we went for a lovely run, and I totally didn't mind running at his much slower pace.
