8 miles! Long for me, longer for the kids!

Hi All!
Well I was heading out of town this weekend to catch up with some family I haven't seen in awhile (yes! that was some of you reading this). Since I knew in advance that I wasn't going to be here for the Saturday group run I decided to go out on Friday night instead. Jessica and another friend I've made in this endeavor, Sarah, went with me to Stony. Being that it was a Friday evening I took the kids along.....
Even though the weight capacity is okay for the 2 of them to be in the tow behind stroller, there is definitely not room enough for the both of them. Man did they fight like brother and sister! I think their limit is about 4 miles. We did see a deer and some turkey along the way! Hannah was very excited.
8 miles is a long way for them to go, so in the future they can come out with me on the short midweek runs but I'll do my best to get someone to watch them for the long runs.
Gearing up for 9 miles this weekend, it'll probably be a little rough since I haven't had time to do some of my midweek jogs! Gotta get back on that horse right?!?!
I'll let you know how it goes...

Keep up the good training! Friend of mine here in Minot runs marathons (at least a couple including one about 2 months ago). She sends good wishes to you.
Enjoy the weekend! I'm just hoping for no rain today.
