Thursday morning was my first run back following the marathon, and I thought the Fun Run was only going to be a mile so I told him I would run with him. When I got there and found out it was a 3k I thought to myself I should have just run the Fun Run as my first run back instead of both the morning run and this run.
When we were lining up at the start Brady was begging me not to run with him. I think he was embarrassed because there were not too many parents running with their kids. I had taken off work early for this and really was looking forward to it so I didn't obey his wishes and ran :)
He did really good and I was very proud of him for running the entire thing without walking even one step. He did really good and finished in 18:02 with a 9:41 pace. He told me after that he was happy that I ran with him and that it helped him keep running the whole time. That makes it worth it :)
On a different front......
Today was my daughter Payton's first run back after two weeks down time following her State Cross Country meet on November 7th. I was going to go out for 3 myself, but we went out for 2 miles to start back slowly.... tomorrow I will take her 10 miles :). She starts winter conditioning for Track on Monday.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving (if you are in the United States - if not have a wonderful Thursday!)

I have a playstation 3 and i just got resistance 2. I am wanting to figure how we can use both playstation accounts at the same time to play co-op online.
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing...I love when our kids want to run with us. I think it is the greatest thing in the world.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard of Youth Juice? I just recently started taking it (about 2 months ago). I helps me to stick with a balanced diet and it makes me want to eat properly...you should check it out..

ReplyDeleteI love that you and your kids both run!! I hope I am lucky enough one day to have my kids run with me too :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great bonding! It's not usual that kids are joining their father/parents on running, usually they'll just love to play than join you. Good news! You must be really thankful about it!
