First Run

Daddy and Joshua went out for their first run together today. Joshua has really liked running and on the way to church this morning he told us he is planning on running a Half Marathon this summer. Brett wisely though they should start out with a 5K perhaps, you know.....as a first race.

So, the training has begun. When they got to the end of the driveway Joshua spontaneously bent down, right in the street, and started doing push-ups as part of his warm up. He then did a few high knee kicks and was finally ready to go. They ran 2 miles and when he got home he asked for a milkshake (vanilla)!

Josh- you are just adorable! I'm sure you'll run marathons someday and we'll all remember when you took your first two miler with dad!

2 Miles?? Wow, that is impressive for a little guy :) SO cute!!! Wants to be just like daddy!!

I love that he wanted a milkshake after his run. That is what I like to hear, after a long run you are allowed to splurge on whatever you want (thats my motto).

Where did he learn the push-ups from? I'm not sure that I've seen Brett do that before his runs!

Josh - I think 2 miles might be the most that I've run--great job!

That milkshake was well deserved!
