3.5 all by my lonesome self this morning. Christine is in Mexico and poor little Sparky is recovering from having the zippity taken out of his doo-dah.
1.2 with the double jogging stroller to take my oldest son to school. We are very lucky to only be .63 miles away from the school. We've had amazing results with running him to school...let me explain....
At my son's school they have a little behavioral system based on lights. All the kids start out with green lights and if they misbehave during the day they have to change their light to yellow, and then red if it happens again. The amazing thing is that my little first grader has never had to change his light to red on the days that I run him to school. But in the last 3 weeks or so, he has had to turn his light to red every single time I DID NOT run him to school. The complaint? He won't sit still in his chair. So I guess I'm really stuck running him! This is good, and I should have no problem having at least 4.3 miles on the odometer every weekday from now on.
Oh yeah, one other thing. Don't you think that Bethany (Cody's wife) should start her own blog? Leave comments for her on Cody's blog. From meeting her at the party, she was extremely nice and, I think, open to the possibility of training. She's already commenting on the blog, and that's half the battle right there. I don't mean to pressure you Bethany (of course I do!) but it IS much more fun to be married to a compulsive runner if you are running too. Just start really little--10 min. of walking and jogging combo. Plus we need more female runners, and, unfortunately, you have made a good impression on me, so now I want to be able to comment on YOUR blog.
1.3 later that night with Holly--only out of loyalty for Holly bc I was tired! She also bribed me by helping me clean. What a sweetie! |
