Several years of getting pushed around parkrun in a buggy and the kid isn't interested in the slightest in running themselves. They will do junior events if I refuse to go around with them, despite them protesting that they want company. If on their own they quite happily trot around just in front of the tail marshal and have a chat, I then pass them a drink of water part way round and they carry on to the finish delighted with themselves. If I go round with them because they want the company, they actually end up refusing after about 100m. Or if we go to an event that their school friends are at then most of the time they have a meltdown after 100m again because everyone ran away already, even though they will happily walk around at the tail at any other event. |
