Week 2: Run 1

For a change, I ran rings round my daughter and the dogs today ๐Ÿ‘ and was joined by my youngest grandsprocket. As with his older cousin, the hard part was getting him to walk.

He was absolutely thrilled when a โ€˜properโ€™ runner waved to him when he ran past, and then tried to run fast enough to catch up with him. ๐Ÿ˜

Great job. Nice to see the daughter put in her place too! Of course she will probably want her title back... this could get competitive ๐Ÿ˜‚

We tried to get her to run with us, but like my husband, she was having none of it.

Shame really as she was really sporty when she was younger - she even qualified as a teacher of outdoor education and spent 2 summers working at a Summer Camp in Canada.

That is a shame... as sheโ€™s willing to come walk I guess you just need a cattle prod and sheโ€™d run! ๐Ÿ˜‚

They are such fun to run with, they have no concept of distance when theyโ€™re having fun. ๐Ÿ˜
