I believe the original poster was asking about planning for a section hike. I think the comments about finding another group is good for thru-hikers who tend to start around the same time and have a common goal. However, I don't think this works so well for a section hiker.
My suggestion would be for the group to discuss and decide on how they are going handle pace differences and separations before the trip.
Training together is a really good idea.
