Pushing the girl
Ran with Leah Kate in the jogger for the first time today. I didn't get up in time to do my run before the bus/little kids awake and Leah did NOT want to go to the YMCA today, so after dropping Thomas I did the last day of week 2 (couch to 5k) with her in the stroller.
She's about 40 pounds now, but it's pretty flat here in coastal GA (understatement) so wasn't too bad, just different. I am not sure how to run this way?
Thomas did great at camp, will blog about it very soon :)

She's about 40 pounds now, but it's pretty flat here in coastal GA (understatement) so wasn't too bad, just different. I am not sure how to run this way?
- Do I hold on 2 hands and push from behind, or one hand and run alongside?
I did both, not sure which felt better. The behind part felt pretty restricted in terms of moving my torso
- Do I run against traffic like when running alone or with traffic like I'm on a bike?
I did both, not sure which felt safer- I wasn't on any busy roads though
- Is it okay to put my ipod on if I can still hear my child- at least that she's making sound, not necessary WHAT she is saying, ha ha?
I had mine on, mostly because I am in the early weeks of C25K that has a lot of time cues for run/walking, plus I love my daughter, but the running is sort of my time (did I write that??)
Thomas did great at camp, will blog about it very soon :)
