Struggling to Keep Up with Faster Runners Any Tips?

Lately, I’ve been running with a group where most people are noticeably faster or more experienced than I am. While I love the energy and motivation, sometimes it’s hard not to feel like I’m holding everyone back. Does anyone else deal with this? How do you stay confident and focused when you’re the one pushing to keep pace? I’m curious if others have found ways to turn this into a positive maybe by setting smaller goals or adjusting their mindset. Would love to hear how you’ve handled similar situations!
