Park with People, Oh my!

"I don't wanna run. There's too many people," so starts mine and Evan's run today, Sunday, January 30, 2011.

While his younger brother was walking around the park introducing himself and making new friends, Evan can hardly stand to stretch to begin our run in the gorgeous weather at Bolton Park.

We used the "Cardiac Training" area to stretch and where are the people?! :)

And while the Princess could have done a fifth lap around the path, the Turtle was a bit pooped and I'm sure swimming before the run had nothing to do with being tired so soon!

Evan actually managed to go around and get behind me as we passed people walking, running and even riding some trikes. I had told his dad, brother and grandmother to be sure NOT to look at us :). I also started teaching him to "find his space/path" and run in it so he isn't digressing into my path. The park's concrete path wasn't too wide so this was good practice.

So, here are the stats - not as exciting as yesterday, but Evan was getting used to the people:

Time: 13:15
Distance: 0.53 miles
Calories: 32.5
Steps: 1,303
Pace: 2.4

Happy Running!
