Every year Burlington, Ontario holds a running race in June. It’s called the Moon in June. Since I am not a runner, I have never participated but this year my girls, 3 and 6, decided they wanted to enter the kids fun run with their friends.
I must admit I was a little skeptical. I just wasn’t sure they knew what they were signing up for, but they did it. They both ran the entire 1 km. I was so proud. I am so proud.
It is a great way to build self esteem, encourage activity and community spirit.
