Finally....

I convinced my husband to register to run the Boilermaker 5k this coming Sunday as I run the Boilermaker 15k. He isn't a 'runner' like many of us who decide to train for marathons and what-not, but he is a runner because he has watched me log the miles and I think that he has decided that what is good for the goose is good for the gander (or vice versa.) So, every day or so, he laces up his new running shoes and heads out for his 3 mile run. I am always proud of him, because I know that his knees aren't happy with his decision to become a member of our 'let's run' club. But he continues. Yesterday, while the boys were with their grandparents, Justin and I ran together for the first time. It wasn't anything monumental, but it was the first time we shared the pavement together. It was fun, and I kept wondering what people must have been thinking as he and I jogged past their homes together, when we are usually squeezing in these jogs separately. I was happy because I know that there not enough people in our country who take care of their health by finding time every day for physical activity - there are even fewer couples who find the time and enjoyment of running together (however long or short the run may be.) So, it may not become something that we have the opportunity to do often, but it was finally nice to run with him.....

Gotta go plot out my daily run today (time to take this marathon training a bit more serious)

Get out there and do something today!
