Last night while taking D for a walk in the stroller, I realized that I am totally incapable of walking in a straight line.
I know, weird, but true.
For whatever reason, I can’t keep on a straight track, even with a guide to hold onto like the stroller. I constantly veer a little to one side, then back to center, then off-center again. I noticed I did the same thing while jogging with her in the stroller last week, too.
(side note – jogging with a non-jogging stroller sucks. i do not recommend it.)
And I don’t just do it when I’m pushing the stroller. Whenever I go for a run I’m always all over the side walk. Talk about the least efficient route possible. I’ve probably added miles to my runs over the years simply by not being able to keep a straight course.
I wonder why this is. No, it’s not the pregnancy-induced center of gravity shift. My belly isn’t nearly that big yet, fortunately. Plus, like I said, it always happens, pregnant or not.
Anyone else do this, or am I the only off-kilter one in the bunch?
Ah well, as long as I don’t start tripping every time I wander I guess I won’t worry about it. For that would make for some really long and painful walks.
Haha….This is hilarious. I’m the same way when I run. Except one thing. I trip too!
@BeautifulSpitUp All right, I’m glad I’m not the only one! But I am going to keep trying to avoid the tripping part. 😉
Maybe it’s just because I’m naturally clumsy, but, I’d think it would be really difficult to walk in a straight line. haha.
@Scroogy Hahaha! And I don’t think I’m that clumsy overall, but for whatever reason just moseying down the sidewalk straight is virtually impossible. Maybe I look down too much?
