My friends and I are training for Cross Country. We do 45 minute runs, and of course that gets kind of boring, and it drags on forever.
The other day we played some games and it made the time FLY. We went through the alphabet and named movies that start with each letter, and we did a "I'm going on a picnic and I am bringing..." memory game.
Does anyone know any other games like that that we could play on our run that would make it less boring. I spy was kind of hard, and we tried the one where we say a word and we have to say the first thing that comes to mind. Those were no fun.
My name is (name that starts with "A"), my husband's/wife's name is (another name starting with "A"), we live in (Place starting with "A") and we sell (Item starting with an "A")
and you go through the alphabet like that. For example;
My name is Alice, my husbands name is Andrew, we live in Atlanta, and we sell apples!
-OR-
My name is Betty, my husband's name is Bob, we live in Baltimore and we sell Boats!

Person A: Do you want to buy a duck?
Person B: A what?
Person A: A duck.
Person B: Does it quack?
Person A: Of course it quacks!
Person B: Do you want to buy a cow?
Person C: A what?
Person B: A what?
Person A: A duck.
Person B: A cow.
Person C: Does it moo?
Person B: Does it quack?
Person A: Of course it quacks!
Person B: Of course it moos!
Person C: Do you want to buy a dog?
Person D: A what?
Person C: A what?
Person B: A what?
