You read that right! I am so super duper excited about it. My mom is paying for me to register for my first 5k and a new pair of running shoes as a Mother's Day gift to me. She's awesome like that haha. The race is called the BlueCross Riverbend Run and its in mid June. Did I mention how excited I am?! :D
Today, I started officially training for it. I have this app on my phone that tracks my distance, speed, calories and what not. I usually walk about 5.75 kilometers every time and today I PR'd by 1 minute! Ha. I ran a lot more. Still not 100% running but it's kind of hard to run up hills pushing a jogging stroller and a 25 pound toddler haha. Hopefully my mom can watch him some days so I can train without him.
Yesterday I took Liam to a local event called the 'Running of the Chihuahuas'. It's a cute dog event sponsored by a local radio station where they race chihuahuas and have some bands come perform. I was actually excited because I got to see Boys Like Girls and Outtasight. Liam was of course excited because of all the dogs his size haha. One of my mom friends was there with her family and we hung out with them for a while. Then my aunts showed up. My aunt Terry breeds chihuahuas and she couldn't miss this event haha. They brought 2 of her dogs and we let Liam hold one.
Cute! Liam was at first, really unsure about holding her, but he eventually warmed up to her. :)
This week will be a super busy week for us. I will be training all week and running lots of errands. Hopefully, we can squeeze a few meetups in. I'm so broke so we will only be going to the free ones haha.
