Strolling Our Way: How it all started

Back in January of this year Melissa, Amber and myself (Shelley) set out on a goal that has been in our minds for a while. We all have always wanted to be able to run and so we decided to train for a 5k. (3.1 miles) With all of us having young children, they had to be apart of our training. We ran with them throughout most of our training from Couch to 5k. While pushing our kids in jogging strollers we ran in the coldest days this year and even in the rain! We were very determined!
That is how the name "Strolling our Way--to a 5k" came about!
In this blog we will share our adventures of running as a mom and how we try to do it! We will keep you up to date with our training, races and accomplishments. Hope you enjoy and feel free to ask any questions you might have! We hope, through this blog, to inspire other people to get out there and get moving! If we can do it, anyone can!
