Short notice here—babies make for busy mommies!—but today I wanted to pop in and share a really cool event that’s coming up on Sunday, May 31: Stroller Running Day!

I don’t know about you other moms, but in my early postpartum days, nothing felt better than getting outside for a stroll. Whether it was for 15 minutes or an hour, I craved my afternoon walks like Baby M craved milk. 🙂

Those walks were a literal breath of fresh air and precious moments of activity for me, but they were often the only time I could get Baby M to take a decent nap!

This was before we ordered our jogging stroller, so just pretend I’m pushing a sleek jogger, ok?

Katie at Mom’s Little Running Buddy has organized Stroller Running Day as a way to celebrate all the fit mamas out there and the extra mile they go to stay active and healthy for their families.

It’s a chance to connect with other mother (and father!) runners both in person through several events across the country (check out the list here) and virtually by using the hashtag #StrollerRun15 (or #StrollerRun14 from last November’s inaugural event).

I encourage you and your families to lace up your running shoes, strap in your little ones, and join us all for stroll this Sunday.

If the weather cooperates, Mark and I plan to take Baby M and Iggy for a Sunday afternoon walk, perhaps at the park or college. I’m already looking forward to it!

Be sure to check the event website for some awesome giveaways, including a BOB Revolution SE stroller (single or double—winner’s choice), his and her Mizuno Running Shoes, and a family 4-pack of Crocs. And don’t forget to share your photos and tweets (#StrollerRun15)!
