I bought myself a double jogging stroller over the weekend which meant I had to go jogging this morning, right? I did a little research to find a good plan for someone who has never, I repeat NEVER been a jogger, or exerciser AT ALL. I found the Cool Running program and decided to give it a shot. I dropped the oldest two off at school and went home to get ready. I changed into some shorts and a T and had my 3 year old put on his tennis shoes because he wanted to jog along beside me. Day one of the program is 5 minutes of walking for warm up followed by intervals of 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for 20 minutes. We made it half way around the block and he started to cry and decided that he wanted his bike so we circled back around and grabbed that and his helmet and headed back out. We made it maybe 20 minutes and I was exhausted! I turned on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for the boys to watch as I plopped myself down on the couch to feed the baby. Mickey Mouse is talking to the kids and the story goes about like this.
Mickey - "What are your favorite things?"
Little D: "Jogging!"
Mickey: "Would you like to do some of our favorite things with us?"
Little D: "No. We only like jogging. Because it's jogging day, right Mom?"
Little D: "No. We only like jogging. Because it's jogging day, right Mom?"
