Well..the time has come for Jake to start logging his miles for his 1 mile pig. For those of you who don't know....here is what I am talking about. Our flying pig marathon hosts a children's event. The kids are supposed to log 25 miles during the months before the race and then they run 1.2 to make for a complete marathon. Last year my oldest son, who was three at the time did it in about 15 minutes. This was the first of his accomplishments...he went on to run a 5k in 50 minutes and a miler at the end of the summer in 11 minutes. So his logging of miles started yesterday and he did it in 13 minutes...walking only once.
The other thing that happened yesterday is that Brian and I hopefully recommitted to fitness. As most of you know I teach and own a StrollerFit franchise. What you don't know is that I have been in a HUGE funk. I haven't been logging miles for the pig, I haven't been swimming, I can barely get my rearend to the gym to get on the eliptical. I needed a swift kick in the butt and unfortunately I had to get it from my husband. See it is not easy being the one who has to cheer everyone else on..(something that I enjoy) but I kind of wear out for me by the end of the day. So anyway..Brian and I pushed the kids while running yesterday (btw the kids weigh a ton, it was much easier before Max became a bubba). Anyway, we are back on track committed to making it 21 days to keep this habit and hopefully continue on. We will be running the pig, now the only thing is will we be accomplishing a personal best.
I love my Strollerfit gals...i love how they push one another in class. I love how they come out in the snow and ice and rain...but now it is time for me to not make excuses. The same goes for my husband...yep he works at least 60 hours a week but he has at least 45 minutes to dedicate to himself to be a fitter person. So keep checking out the site...it should be an adventure.
In health,
katie
