i could run like them. i wanted to take up a sport that i could do on my own, at my own time, my own pace. i could also use more energy to keep up with my kids and running was the perfect choice for me.
when i started, i had the support of my husband and shortly after he even started running with me! nowadays you can see our whole family running together on a regular basis around our neighborhood, complete with our 9-month-old daughter emma in her running stroller! i run about four to five times a week, and we try to run together at least twice a week.
