Running a 5k with both my kids, tips?
I have my first 5k of the year on Saturday and I am getting very nervous. It's for my 6yr old DDs school so she is running it with me. I was planning on pushing my 3yr old DS in the jogger but he wants to run with us. Should I register him and bring the jogger or just plan on him running/walking? Kids 6 & under are free but need to be registered.
Also, any tips on preparing my kids? I have another 5k next month that the kids will do with me as well.

Re: Running a 5k with both my kids, tips?
take your jogger for your 3 year old. I don't see a 3 year old (and I have a 3.5 year old) being able to run for 3.1 miles.
Other than that, let your 6 year old set the pace and just start behind the runners. Good luck!

How awesome that your kids are interested in running with you!
I would not register your three year old. I would bring the jogger and let him do a combination of running/riding.
My older DS and I have done 3 5Ks together. I always bring along fruit snacks to eat along the way, and we have a little walk/drink break at the water station. We didn't to a lot of training beforehand. We maybe jogged twice to his school and ran around his track a few times in preparation for the first one.
Have fun!
