I couldn't think where to catch you to tell you to talk to you about this, so why not start a WHOLE THREAD?
You were always so supportive when I wrote about how my husband and I would go running with our older son in his BOB and our little dog. Well we fell off the wagon when I got pregnant with number two and stayed firmly off the wagon until this week. Sad because our second son is 13 months now.
I finally got us a DOUBLE running stroller and we started our family runs again. DH pushes the boys and you should see the looks we get! People think he is Hercules pushing that stroller, but I am quick to point out that it is very light and maneuverable
. I think it evens the running playing field for him to push the boys and I run totally unencumbered
Anyways, I just wanted to share this with you because I remember that you really wanted to do similar family activities once your LO comes along... well, you can even do it with two if you want!
As an aside I am surprised how fit I still was after not running for 22 months. Or really, doing any activity at all. I thought I would be starting at zero again after so long, but I think maybe I am starting at a level 6 or 7 instead. Muscle memory is great.
Our dog on the other hand did not fare so well. When we finished our run the first day, he sat on the ground and refused to walk another step! He is a 12 lb weiner dog, so it was a long run for him.
Hope you are doing well!
