Emily was not to enthused about participating in her school fun run, so I told her I would run it with her.
At the start I reminded her that if you sprint to hard at the beginning you'll lose energy to quickly and struggle at the end. Slow and steady wins the race. But as I struggled to keep up with her on the first lap, I could see that my SLOW pregnant pace was not going to help her win the race. So thankfully Jared took over to run the rest with her and she ended up being the 2nd place girl to finish in her grade.
The next day Jacob & Dan ran and Jared joined both of them 2 races in a row. It's obvious that their daily backyard football is keeping them in a lot better shape than me.
