Mom’s Day Run



The Saturday before Mother’s Day, I had signed up to run another 5K…but this time the boys were coming with me.  I didn’t think it’d be right to run a 5K just for moms without bringing along the two little bugs that made me a mom!

We arrived a bit early to pick up my race packet and were lucky enough to be able to stroll through a local farmer’s market that was set up next door while we waited for the race to begin.

I had to talk the boys into staying in the stroller for the most-part for this run…the route went on some trails & some city streets, so I was more comfortable keeping them a bit more contained.  They rode well for the most part and I got a great workout, as I haven’t run with both of them in the double stroller for a while.  I did let them out to run along with me for a good ¼ mile along a trail part of the route…they loved it – it gave them a little freedom & a bit of exercise.  They happily crawled back in to ride a crossed the finish line!

It was a beautiful day with great weather…something we haven’t been getting much of all spring!  A fun way to celebrate being a mom!
