I have not kept up well with my running blog. Could it be because I am mom to two kids, have had a sick husband, work full time, am chef and personal assistant to my family? Nah....wink, wink. But I do find it challenging at times to get out the door for a run. Nevermind the fact I forget some piece of running gear at least most of the time. But, I know I'm not alone. And if you feel alone, please know that I struggle right beside you. Think of it this way....someone has to be getting a good laugh watching you and me struggle and juggle kids, gear, etc. If not, I am doing this all in vain! Lol!
Training for Bayshore is in full swing. Though most of my runs have been indoors, either on the track or on the treadmill, I am logging miles!! And it feels spectacular! Today I took out my new running partner....my 4 1/2 month son, Nicholas!!! I know...you're judging me now for putting a four month old in a jogger! No worries......he's bigger then most 1 year olds!! Yep....a stocky 20 pounder! And I LOVE every chubby roll!! (why is it chub looks sooo darn cute on a baby, but not on a momma?) I LOVE my jogger. It pushes easy, reclines to accomodate a comfortable riding postiton for Nick and it has a weather cover so he is completely protected! So other then the wind, which by the way makes pushing a jogger feel like running with a parachuete strapped to your back, what a beautiful day to introduce him to his new jogger and the world of running! I love that he loves being outdoors, just like his sister, and hope that one day I can inspire him to be active, no matter the sport. We completed successfully our run around Reeds Lake! One of my favorite places to run! And I already can't wait to take him out again! Until our next run.....
