On June 4th, thousands of women will line up in Albany for the annual Freihofer's Run for Women.
You could be one of them.
Jennifer Gish, features reporter, sports columnist and parenting blogger for the Times Union, will be leading a team in the Freihofer's Training Challenge. The 10-week program, a beginner's program called Couch to 5K, is free to those who register for the race. Trainings will take place at The Crossings in Colonie. Jenn's team meets at 6 a.m. Mondays and a second session will be held for her team and the other two teams led by Fox 23's Ann Hughes and WGY's Kelly Lynch at 9 a.m. Saturdays. Training started March 28, but you can sign up until April 11.
The trainings will be led by local fitness experts, and will let you move from walking to running by June 4. Jenn didn't start running until a couple months ago, but as a mom of 2 1/2-year-old twins, she's found it to be a welcomed stress reliever and a good way to stay in skinny jeans and out of mom jeans.
Click here (http://www.freihofersrun.com/fc25k.htm) for all of the details and for information on how to register. Be sure to select "Jennifer Gish" from the team captain pull-down menu when you register.
{Guest post by Jennifer Gish, thanks Jenn!}

Albany Mommy's Friday app love.
App - Have2P
Price - free
Why? - pregnant women, toilet training kids, errands take longer than you thought? Seriously, how many times have you had to go and can't remember where the closest bathroom is? This will find dozens for you, list where they are, and if they've been rated. So cool!

Have you heard of the new Got Kids? consignment sale? It's a brand new consignment sale starting up in Troy.
Dates : April 5-9th
Place : Hilton Garden Inn on Hoosick St, Troy
We had relatives visiting from out of town stay there recently and it is nice!! To me that means this is going to be a nice sale, maybe a little higher end than some of the others.
There are still a few spots to sign up to consign, but hurry because there are only a few.
Shopping times start on April 6th and you can find the whole list of public and pre shop times here.

I have suddenly developed a huge love of apps. I am also having a hard time keeping up with kids and work and Albany Mommy blog lately. So, I'm going to try to post apps I love that help keep me organized or keep the kids amused or learning or anything else. Friday sound like a good day to learn about cool apps??
Instant Playdates app lets you set up playdates and invite your friends through facebook. Gotta' get out of the house and want to invite people. Let them know you'll be in the Crossings in a half an hour with this app. So cool!
Works on Android or iPhone. And - it's FREE!!
