Mini-me has a passion for running. I love that she does because it has been an outlet for me for years. It's the only way I was able to get back into shape after having her. Since she started school a few years ago, she comes home with stories about PE. "Mom, I'm the fastest runner in my class," she says. Well, yes, I believe it. The girl can run.
Last spring, I signed her up for her very first 5K race. I signed up to be her running partner. We duck taped our running shoes to make sure they wouldn't get stained and we even wore tights (it was chilly that night). I wasn't so sure she could keep up for 3.1 miles, but she inspired me. "Come on, mom. No walking. Run!" We had so much fun.
