I have often used a stroller when walking or going out with my son, but now that he is 3 years old, I put the stroller in storage in April. I told my son that he can walk by himself now and you are ready to outgrow the stroller? I asked him, and he said yes. There were no objections and I was able to leave the stroller smoothly. I had not expected that it would be so easy for him to get out of the stroller, which he loved so much, and I felt a little disappointed. Recently, my son has been pushing the stroller by himself more often than riding in it, and I was worried that he might hit people or objects around him, so it was nice to know that I no longer have to worry about that. However, even on today's walk with the strider, he got tired on the way and asked to be carried, and since we no longer have a stroller, I had to carry my 3-year-old son home with the strider in one hand. Well, I'm sure I'll continue to get tired and have to carry him for a while, but I'm going to let him move on his own feet! My arms are about to give out, but I'm going to do my best!
Another thing that has changed in my son's daily life is his naps. He used to take a nap every day at the daycare he attended three days a week, but since he started attending kindergarten in April, he no longer takes naps on weekdays. However, he now goes to bed one to two hours earlier than before. As a result, I wake up earlier in the morning, at around 5:30 am. As a result, I had to go out for a walk at 6:00 a.m. yesterday as well, but I'll just say it's a good thing that I wake up early. The photo is of a fountain that my son likes and often goes to on his walks these days. It is located in the plaza of an old apartment complex near our house, but we don't see it very often these days. Even if there is a fountain, I think it is often stopped. The caretaker happened to talk to me and told me that the maintenance cost was too much and that there had been some consideration to discontinue the fountain. But he seemed troubled by the fact that the fountain has become a symbolic fountain of the complex.
Yesterday I ran 10 km for the first time in a long time, and I would like to record my run. my body, which had been getting a little lighter because I was too busy in March to run much, had rebounded beautifully and slowed down. I started off well, but after 9 km, my legs started to feel heavy and I started to breathe a lot and it was a very hard run.
The graph shows that the pace slows down toward the end due to lack of energy. If I had enough energy, I would be motivated to pick up the pace as the finish line approached, but I'm almost there! Swing your arms, lift your legs! but my body does not respond. The last time I ran 10 km was on February 3, so it has been about two months since I last ran 10 km. I'm back to square one. Continuation is power. But it is really difficult to keep going. If I don't feel good about running, I lose motivation and a negative cycle begins!

これまで息子と散歩や外出するときにベビーカーをよく使っていたのですが、3歳になったこともあり、4月に入ってからベビーカーを倉庫にしまいました。息子にももう一人で歩けるし、ベビーカーは卒業でいい?と話すと、うん。と答えてくれて、特に反対意見はなくスムーズにベビーカーから離れることができました。あれだけ大好きだったベビーカーからこれほど難なく離れられるとは予想しておらず、少し拍子抜け感がありました。最近はベビーカーに乗るより、自分でベビーカーを押すことのほうが多く、周りの人や物に当たらないかヒヤヒヤしていたので、その心配が無くなったのは良かったと思います。ただ、今日のストライダーでの散歩でも途中で疲れたのか、抱っこしてーとなり、ベビーカーはもうないので、ストライダーを片手に3歳の息子を抱えて家まで帰ることになりました。まあ、しばらくは途中で疲れて抱っこ、ということが続くと思いますが、もう自分の足でしっかり動いてもらいます!腕がもげそうになっていますが、私も頑張ろうと思います!
もう一つ普段の生活で変わったのが息子の昼寝です。これまで週3日通っていた保育園では毎日昼寝をしていたこともあり、基本的に毎日昼寝の時間を取っていましたが、4月に入ってから幼稚園通いになり平日は昼寝をしなくなりました。1日通しで遊んでいるため、家に帰ってくると眠気からか感情の浮き沈みが激しく、大変なこともあるのですが、寝る時間がこれまでよりも1時間から2時間ほど早くなりました。その分、朝起きるのが早くなり5時半くらいに目覚めます。その結果、昨日も朝6時台から散歩に出かけることになるのですが、早起きは三文の徳ということで良いことだということにしておきます。写真は最近息子がお気に入りで散歩でよく行く噴水です。家の近くの古い団地の広場に設置されているのですが、最近はあまり見かけないですよね。あったとしても止まってしまっている事が多いと思います。たまたま管理人の人が声をかけてくれたので話を聞いてみると、やはり維持費の負担が大きく、廃止の検討もあったようです。でもこの団地の象徴的な噴水になっているからなーと悩ましそうにしていました。
昨日は久しぶりに10km走をしたので記録を残しておきたいと思います。3月は忙しくてあまり走れなかったため、少し軽快になってきていた体が見事にリバウンドして鈍っていました。走り出しは良かったですが、9キロを過ぎたあたりから足が重く、息も上がりかなりキツイランニングとなりました。
グラフをみると、最後の方はエネルギー切れでペースが落ち込んでいることが分かります。余裕があればゴールが近づくとやる気が出てペースが上がるのですが、あと少しだ!腕を振って、足を上げよ!と頭で必死に命令しても体が反応してくれません。最後に10km走ったのが2月3日なので、2ヶ月くらい期間が空いてしまっています。こうなるともう振り出しに戻ってしましますね。本当に継続は力なり。なのですが、その継続は本当に難しい事です。気持ちよく走れないとやる気も無くなって負の連鎖が始まってしまうので、ここは辛抱して頑張っていこうと思います!
