Following In My Footsteps

My children have seen me working out since they were babies.  Whether I was doing weights or out running, they know that it is am important part of my life. Lately they have been asking to do some of my workouts with me.

My son wanted to run Matt’s Mission last weekend so we did the race together. He skated the day before so his legs were tired and he didn’t run as much as he wanted to. But I enjoyed the time we spent together.

Then the other night my daughter wanted to workout with me while I was doing weights. We told her that it would be beneficial to her to start doing leg exercises to help add some thrust to her pitching.

Then on Tuesday evening before Adrienne’s game my son wanted to come on a run with me. He did well on that run. He didn’t complain much and we were able to maintain a 13 minute mile. I had to hold him back at the beginning because I wanted him to keep his stamina for the entire 3 miles.

I hope I am making an impact with my health and fitness and I enjoy doing what I enjoy with them.
