It is $2 less than the Drop In rate which does require an adult to stay and for this program you can leave your child with two ECE staff for 1.5 hours. This time is for warming up, doing the run and then cooling down afterwards. Myself and Katie are volunteering our time to create a free community event, but I am bringing in two qualified staff members to care for the children and I cannot take a loss on this program when staff wages are taken into consideration. But, several families did bring their children along with them this week, either walking with them or in strollers, so it is only a convenience option that I am presenting with regards to the drop off program, not a requirement. I do hope you are able to join us, we really had a wonderful time this week:)Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086233090743960860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1066350898667566933.post-47797995279228531112013-04-26T21:46:11.148-04:002013-04-26T21:46:11.148-04:00I have to admit, I am a little afraid of the Spart...I have to admit, I am a little afraid of the Spartan Race - we can train for it together!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086233090743960860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1066350898667566933.post-29289118845848592822013-04-26T21:45:21.203-04:002013-04-26T21:45:21.203-04:00I would love to meet you and your little one!

My only concern is the cost of $8. That seems like a lot to me if you're going to be going every week. I mean how long does it take to run 5K? 30-50 min depending on how fast you are. Maybe you could convince A Gym Tale to reduce the cost :)Amanda Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13026636672242954342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1066350898667566933.post-52555735579894037152013-04-15T21:38:34.450-04:002013-04-15T21:38:34.450-04:00I'm just completing a 5 week learn to run 5k p...I'm just completing a 5 week learn to run 5k program and would be interested in joining in.

Love that :) I also love that you are signing up for races to keep motivated. Like you said its so great for our little ones to see their parents being active, nothing better then your kids cheering for you at the finish line! They truly think your wonder woman and get caught up in the excitement of it all. <br /><br />I'm so excited to start a little run group. Some of my favourite goose bump moments have come from watching other women reach their firsts...longest run, longest distance, best time etc. We will be there to encourage you and help you....and of course lots of laughter along the way.
