The ever famous running stroller. The exercise tool for so many new mothers. Taking your little ones on a run to get off the baby weight. I've had the question "so when are you going to settle down and have kids?" a lot lately. Here is my sort of answer.
I think the thought is I lost all this weight so it's time to catch a man, get married and have babies. Basically people are insinuating that prior it was not possible. Let's be real I dated jerks heavy and thin. Also, I just got there, I want to enjoy it for a while. I also think it's a personal victory that I did not marry and procreate with my previous love interests. At my age though, everyone seems to wonder when I'm going to start making babies?
Answer... not anytime soon. I was thinking about it a lot on my run and realized I have to many dreams to fulfill before I make mini-marathoners. I want to travel the world and really live. I stayed in bubble too long and these tiny, pretty gross feet need to run around the world. London, Berlin, Tokyo, the Great Wall of China, Rome and the original in Athens internationally and Chicago, all of the service marathons, Seattle and return trips to Boston and NYC stateside are priorities to me. This could happen with kids but it will be tough. I want to finally enjoy life and see everything the world has to offer... Plus run every damn race and have a really bad ass medal collection:).
To give it up and be selfless for a child is not in my plans and I'm kinda sick of everybody making me feel old. I have plenty of time. Someday I will pump out some future running nuts, but for now, it's time to live and run. I want to look back and have no regrets so I can be the best mom ever. See, you do have deep thoughts on a run! My third bucket list marathon is not far away... PARIS!!! I'm going to Paris.... Enough said!! Less than 5 months!!!
