I found a friend here that like to run as much as I do. She also has a new baby only two weeks older than Zach. I asked her in November if she wanted to do a run exchange and she was thrilled. We have kept it up every week since then. It is great to get out and exercise by myself twice a week and know the kids are just as happy about having a friend over. Here is our schedule: Mondays at my house, she comes over whenever she is ready (we try to get it done before noon), one of us runs while the other stays in the house with the kids (she has a 4 year old boy too), then when the first one gets back the other goes. Wednesdays are at her house. Zach is almost 6 months old and I am proud to say I am up to 3 miles (very slow 11 minute miles, but at least I am running).
Here are Zach and Liana enjoying their running day playdate. I think they could be cousins they look so much alike. Blond, fair, and blue, blue eyes.
They really like each other!

how cute are they?! And that is SO awesome you've set something up like that. I'm sure the kids love the playdate as much as you get out to run... yeah, probably not! Wish we could run together again! Do you still run in you sun & moon boxers? ;) Miss you!
My first thought was how awesome that you have a running partner, but being a mom... a babysitting swap for running is even BETTER! Way to go with the three miles. Remember when we used to get up early in Logan to head over the field house? Good times:)
