Walking buddy yes or no?

Do you personally find you like having someone to walk with or no?
Are they good motivation for you?

Some days I'd want to do my own thing, but I'm wondering if a friend coming along one or 2 times a week would be a nice change ....

My best friend and I try to get together and walk three times a week. We walk for 3-5 miles. It is nice, it gives her a chance to get out of the house and it gives me someone to talk exercise with.
She is a lot taller than me (Me 5'2" her 5'10") so it makes me have to up my pace more than I would on my own, which is a good thing. The only bad thing is, I am trying to start jogging and she can't (old knee injury) so it does slow down the moving on to the next level that way, but all in all it is great having someone to walk with sometimes.
