Here are a few of the things I did during my running workout on my treadmill:
- changed 2 diapers
- broke up 5 fights over the same ridiculous toys
- changed the channel 2 times and then put in a movie. (that no one watched)
- got two different drinks (not for me)
- went back for two different snacks. (again, not for me)
- nursed a cranky baby
- helped a preschooler “clean up” after using the bathroom
So much for a stress free workout, huh? No matter how many interruptions, I still felt better after my workout than before.
Never underestimate the power of a workout gang!

Good for you not just throwing in the towel and giving up on the whole workout! I love to workout – it is my only form of sanity and stress relief:)

I too changed two diapers during my run this morning! Kudos to you for not losing your mind in the midst of it all. Yes, I’m having one of *those* days.
I am happy to know this ..
Thanks for the post..
You are so right! Even if your workout is interrupted it’s better than not having done it at all! If nothing else it gives you a great feeling of accomplishment that you are clever enough to do it all!

Good job on persevering! I would have given up – maybe that’s why I haven’t bothered to buy a treadmill.
