he proposes to go out to run together. she doesn’t object but isn’t enthusiastic. she agrees. the little one is happy to go out. she wants to go slow. he wants to train, but it’s a slow run in his training program. the little one is happy to sit in the stroller at whatever speed. he knows he should do at least 10k today. she knows she won’t do more than 6k. he consents with grinding teeth. the little one doesn’t care. he wants to go up and down. she wants to run on flat terrain. the little one is just interested in the dogs strolling around. he wants the run to be still some kind of training for him (and her). she wants the run to be convenient. the little one just wants to go out.

in the end they won’t run far enough for him, a bit too fast for her and the little one falls asleep after 500m.

family runs are not the easiest ones. but all are satisfied when being back home again ;-)
