A few nights ago, my family went to the beach for an evening picnic. It was a cool, overcast evening, so the kids didn’t last long in the water. That’s okay….they were excited to challenge Mom and Dad to some running races.
I must admit, this is one of our family’s favorite beach activities. Give us an uncrowded stretch of sand, and we can run around for quite a while.
What? This doesn’t sound like fun to you?
Trust me. It was.
Ready….set….go!
Even the stowaway was undaunted by her competition:
Touching the turnaround spot:
The Bear, running a time trial:
Racing Dad:
The Monkey always smiles like this while he runs:
Racing Mom:
There’s no “letting kids win” in our house:
Now you go Run for Fun, too!

So this is what families of fitness professionals do after dinner. I grew up in a family of engineers and our after dinner game of the square root game was equally competitive but not quite so active. 😉
Ha! My boys– good little future enginerds– would love the square root game as much as they love running.
