A few weeks ago I did a Color Me Rad race with my children. They had a great time and loved it and it was a really nice way to start getting them into thinking about running as fun. We mostly walked with short bursts of running, but no one complained or asked if we were almost done and no one thought it was too long. I love the fact that my children were unphased by a 3 mile walk, and realzie that we generally walk a lot in our daily lives. I really hope this is instilling healthy habits in them for later in their lives.
That looks like fun. So cool that your kid weren't phased by the time and distance.
ReplyDeleteAn event like that should certainly catch children's interest and make them feel exercise can be fun - we never did anything like that when I small. My Snapshot is http://goo.gl/9IGEs

What great fun,
ReplyDeleteHow fun, especially for a family. Did all that color come off easily, or did you have rainbow splotches for a while?

ReplyDeleteWhat a great tradition! Well done :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun. I can't tell but if you have the Asics Kinsei on, you must be loving the shoe.
