Wasn't even gonna go out at all today, but McCall wanted to take Clydes advice and run barefoot in the grass. So we went to the ball fields behind our house and made a lot of big loops in the grass then played follow the leader all over the fileds. It was actually pretty fun!! I thought I would just have us run around untill we had done a mile or mile and a half and then go home, but after we got down there and took our shoes off to start running my Nike Ipod quit working..... It took me a minute to realize that I was missing the sensor that attaches to my shoe. So we just guessed on the distance. But I bet it was pretty close maybe more. I felt like I better do something today with Lybi mentioning a BIG GOOSE EGG yesterday made me a bit self conscious!! (just kidding) The discussion on running barefoot earlier mentioned that it makes you more light on your feet, however I didn't feel any too light on my feet running through the grass, but it did feel like when I was a little kid running the neighborhood in the summer and never being able to find my shoes... Just as fun with my little one too!! We'll definately do that again, fun to see her get excitted about the idea of running!!! |
