If you include using your kids might that be an incentive to hold back on feeding them? Lets see, I do a modified push press with my kids. Bear crawl with them on my back, crab walk with them on my stomach. I like the idea of the Bride on Back to the Bridal shop and back. Also, maybe some sort of wheelbarrow race maybe with the evil wheel.

OK, we (Tracy and Tom) will most likely get totally creamed, but we’re in. It sounds like quality-good-time-together-FUN!
Date? Time? Kids OK hanging out in the “video room”?

Loredie, that is good thinking.

Let me know if you find a good quickie divorce lawyer who can give us a 2-for-1 deal.

As long as I get the kid & kettlebells in the settlement, I’ll be happy…

Umm, does divorce qualify as an automatic exemption?

Hmmm… the decathlon measures all around athletic ability, including mastering technique, etc…. So there needs to be sprinting, endurance, upper and lower body strength, technique.

I like Shari’s list. All about tire sled races.

Confirmed Shari–experimenting with Mateo is neither cute or funny. I love the rest of the ideas though (especially the “bridal” store run and truck pushing)!

I love this idea! (Not least because my husband wouldn’t be caught dead at the IC, so I’m totally off the hook.)

Steve – if you want to get the kids in on the act, I like the idea of # of pushups in 1 minute with kid on back…I’ve seen a lot of photos of IC dads and moms practicing that one.

let me give you Rune’s schedule so you’ll know exactly when to hold this event. No better you tell me and then I’m sure he’ll be working, wink, wink!

A new form of couples therapy right?

I do like the kids watching part since Annakari loved swim team but didn’t like the swim meets-just ask any OPP swim team parent and they will confirm! – Yeah, she didn’t like them because she wanted to touch first. I’m sure she’s gets it from her father!
