Jayce (Read 8 times)

    Just wanted to brag a little about my oldest:  Jayce (just turned 6) did his first 5k today!

    He ran almost the whole time and only stopped when I made him stop to drink some water.

    I kept telling him it was ok to walk, but he just kept going.

    His time was 37:13.

    I was very impressed!

    and then he went straight to a soccer game... so nap time came early.

      Yay Buddy!!! It's in his DNA to be awesome Wink

       

      Glad I got to see you fine, athletic people.

        Way to go, Jayce.  Tha'ts awesome.

         

        I'll brag on my almost 18 year old.  Its kinda funny.  She has never been that motivated to exercise no matter how much I display or verbalize the need to do so.  A few weeks back she had to go to the doc.  They weighed her.  She was shocked to hear the number.  That weekend we go looking for a prom dress.  She was in between sizes.  So our decision was to size up and have it altered or size down and her shed a few pounds.

         

        With some encouragement from the sales college girl, she found her motivation.  We sized down.  Since the end of March, she has gone to the Y at 5:30 am to run on the treadmill, do a spin class, or Angela's class.  And has walked for an hour each Sunday.  Proud to say she has lost the weight and her prom dress fits perfectly!!!

         

        Now, to see if it will continue...
