Saturday morning I ran a 5K while pushing the boys in a double stroller. I have been training these past 6 weeks - I needed something to occupy my time with Aaron gone - but pushing a stroller still was rough. I loved having the boys with me though!
I signed Eli up for the 1 mile kids' run a month ago and he's been training and so excited about it. We stayed out late at the trunk or treat the night before so he was tired Saturday morning. The weather was warm, too, so after being in the stroller and sun, he didn't want to run. I talked him into it and minutes after we started, he wanted to get in the stroller. I almost turned around and left, but then decided I wanted him to finish what he started, even if he needed my help. Families are for helping each other out, right? He did get excited at the end and ran toward the finish line. He keeps talking about his race so hopefully next time he can run even more and be more excited about it.
