Running with my boys

Since graduating a couple of months ago I have discovered the joys of running with my sons. They have both always been in to sports and have always ran, I however have never had the desire or the 'puff' to run, let alone run with them, lets face it I would have struggled terribly anyway! Well now that I do have a few runs under my belt I can now finally enjoy the running experience with them. In fact last week I ran 8k with my youngest son in the south of France, he is a basketball pro, and yesterday I ran 8k in Paris with my eldest who is a golf pro like myself. Both runs were brilliant and I'm looking forward to this Sunday when I will be back out again with my youngest!

Keep it to yourselves as I don't want them to know but I want to run in some half marathons at the end of the year. This is something they have never done and I am sure it would make them very proud:-)

Must have been amazing running in Paris. Good luck with the half marathon training - nothing like keeping your boys on their toes!

It's great that you can run with your sons, it is such a lovely thing to do. I run with one of my daughters at least once a week now and really do enjoy it. We are lucky people. :)
