Marathoning with multiples

Okay, it's not easy with twins (actually surviving triplets).

But at least I didn't have to freakin' push QUADS in a jogstroller. Up hills. With a 6-year-old hanging on.

Chapeau, Vanessa Tull (2006 Los Angeles Marathon, 6:45).

Cute story. I was pushing/running with 115lbs worth of toddlers (2 mine and one niece) up a steep hill this weekend. I was dying. 200lbs? That's crazy hard.

I remember those days. I was depressed the other day because I got passed by a guy pushing a double jogger, while my only extra weight was my ipod and my butt. Oh well, I tell myself he was a big, bad Marine so that's why he passed me.

When I used to run a dayhome, a dentist appointment was like a holiday. No diapers? I just lay back and breathe?

Thanks for the reminder that a mere marathon can't scare ME, I'm a PARENT :)
