I am happy to
announce our family 5k was a success! I was not able to talk my teenager
into joining us as he wanted to rest up for his soccer game, but my wife and
other boys were in. We woke up to a frigid morning for Columbia (35 degrees) which we were not quite
prepared for so the boys were a bit cold going into this one. I am so proud of how well Katie is doing and
her attitude toward running has made a true 180. As much as I love sharing this passion with
the whole family there are always challenges when our kids are involved. We were running a few minutes behind schedule
due to a massive clothes search and therefore did not get to warm-up or prepare
as long as we would have liked. My
youngest decided to run with Katie at the last minute and the cold was getting
the best of him so managed to slow her down.
Despite these extra challenges Katie and I set new personal bests J. I
love it when goals are set & reached and it's always rewarding to see your tired kids woof down fresh donuts with a smile on their face.
So what’s
next? Well, I am officially registered
for the TRYCHARLESTON HALF triathlon coming up in April and will begin specific
training for this in the coming weeks. I
learned about this race from a client and am very happy that I am able to be in
Charleston for
his first Tri. I plan to blog an update
on our training and would love to hear from you on what is on your
calendar. Have you booked your next
challenge? Set new goals?
