Ever since I began running marathons, my parents have supported me, cheered me on, bought numerous ice packs and ask me why I want to run that far. I respond, "it's not all that far if you keep training. Why don't you come for a run with me". Their response: "We don't run".
Well, on New Year's day, my mom ran with me! After hearing about our clients' progress, she was inspired. We began with a walk and then integrated 1 min running with 4 mins of walking. She loved it and is getting Dad to run with her this weekend.
If I self proclaimed "I'm not a runner" can run, you can too! Try something new this year in 2012.
