This is a bit early, but I will be flat stick busy for the rest of the week and probably won't have time to post before Sunday.
MOTHER'S DAY 2003-2008.
5 years ago I was throwing up around the clock and fearing I would miscarry.
4 years ago I 'ran' 4km in 38 minutes, 4 minutes slower than my Mum!
Three years ago it was such a beautiful day I did the 8 km instead of the 4km and had such a good time I ended up finishing my first half-marathon later that year.
Two years ago it poured with rain, I ran on my own and no-one took any photos. It was still a great day.
Last year I was so proud to be sharing the day with Mum and Noddie that I ignored my sore ankle.
Last June I thought I wouldn't be racing again until now.
This year we will be running together again. You're the best, Mum.
HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY TO MY WONDERFUL MUM, AND TO ALL THE MUMS READING THIS.
IMPORTANT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: If you have a Mum, or the woman you love is a Mum, go and organise an EXCELLENT present STRAIGHT AWAY.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to you and your mum. :)
What a great post - It's neat to be able to be active with your own active mum, and your lovely daughter!
I'm new to reading your blog, and I reckonised Albert Lake from your photos - I have run the 'Around the Lake' twice. (I have a sister in Coburg). This year I've entered the Run Melbourne Half marathon!! Can't wait!!! I've always wanted to do it!
Cheers,

Awwww...how fantastic is that?!
Your mum ran a race with you and your daughter!
[no! dont look! I'm filling up!]
Seriously though, I think thats pretty amazing. I wish I could convince my Mum to take a walk around a park, never mind run a 4km. I still spoil her on Mothers Day though :)
I love being a mum (in my best Aussie accent)
Happy Mother's day and enjoy the run!
Happy Mother's day to you too!
Wow, that's awesome!!
Happy Mother's day A.
Re: Music
HAPPY tunes?!
But how on earth do you find it in yourself to bark like a drill sergeant when you fail to run at the required pace?
Oh wait....
;) haha
