National Running Day Fun!

Last Wednesday was National Running Day and the kiddos and I went out in the morning to do a lap or two at our local park.

The Politician has really started enjoying he "big kid bike" now that he's about an inch taller and he had a blast racing on the flat trails. Any time there was an hill he would get off and push it up or raise his feet in the air over the pedals and run smack into a tree. He really enjoyed himself.
On the paved trail and loving it!
She's ready to go!

PT is a whole different biking story. She is learning how to use the tricycle and amidst the "I can't" and "will you push me?" she has figured out how to go backwards pretty well. She ended up running along side me and the Enforcer instead. She either wanted to hold my hand or hold onto her brother's which did not help me steer the stroller very well.

Beautiful day!

Here's a lovely like poem for you about our NRD adventure:

As a celebration,
(And to kick off summer fun)
my little ones and I,
We all went out for a run.

The oldest he prefers,
Riding fast by on his bike,
And it’s some wheels as well,
For the youngest little tyke.

My little lady, well,
Like mom, enjoys a good run,
We all had quite the day
Lots of racing in the sun!

I was entering for a chance to win a neat pair of compression shorts (with ice pack pockets for post run) and wrote the poem as my entry. I let you know if I win! (Today is the last day to enter. Click here for a chance!)

I love the baby swinging pictures.
Of course since we were at the park, we had to hit up the playground before we left! The Enforcer LOVES the swings. Just like his brother and sister!

He was pushing both of them!
