So, usually I have to wait on Derek to get home before I to go run. I assumed John would slow me down. Boy, I was el wrongo!!! This kid is awesome! (He inherited those traits from his mom.)
John road his bike while Heather and I ran. He ended up doing at least a couple of miles on his bike and at least a mile and half run/ walking with us. This kid was amazing and only complained once when we were scouting a trail to run.When we got home he said, "who needs a wii momma, that was fun!"
This fits perkfectly into my goal for the year. Not only am I trying to get healthy for myself, but I have a desire for my family to be healthy. I want my husband and brother-in-law to stop the tobacco use. (Yep, I'm calling yall out on the internet) If y'all are not gonna exercise with your wives, you gotta do something for your health. I want all of us to be an example for John, Lauren, Ben and Ethan. Ok, I'm gonna get off of that soapbox!!! (For now)
Back to John, I may let him do a 1 mile fun run with us in a couple of months...if he wants to. I'm such a happy mommy :).
Some of you people need to sign up for a race, don't make me name names....No pressure :)
Loves,
Jenn
Ps. I would've have a picture of my little runner and Heather riding his bike....but my phone was going dead. :( NEXT TIME I will do better :)
Trail running is much better for the joints when you train a lot. Anything other than asphalt/ cement.
ReplyDeleteI think I might enjoy the view as well. The.football field gets boring!
