Run Spunk, Run! Beginnings of a Young Runner

Sharing is caring!
Since Spunk was old enough to move on his own, I used to joke that he would skip walking and just get up and start to run. Well, that wasn't very far from the truth! This little boy has been fast on his feet since he got confident enough to take his first steps. When he was younger, I would push him in the stroller when I was training for a race or running in a 5k. He grew up loving being outside and feeling the breeze rush by. Once he was old enough, I entered him in the "Tot Trot" races that often occur before my 5k's, and he was hooked. We signed him up for soccer so that he could use his energy and running skills in a sport, because there aren't any running clubs around us that take kids younger than elementary age. He liked it, but it wasn't the same freedom as running in a race.Necessary cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly.
