1. Gym Membership w/ childcare. Because sometimes you want to run ALONE!
2. Burley/ Chariot Bike trailer w/ running attachement
These 2 brands really are the safest/ most functional out there (in my opinion), and for as much training you will do with the kids in tow, you really need something safe, reliable and comfortable for the kids. It is a little hard to switch the attachements, if you can afford it, buy a separate running stroller.
3. Local Trail Map, it helps to know where the local running/ biking trails are (and where the parks are). You cannot ride as fast on a trail but it's much safer. I try to stop at a park most of the time so that the kids enjoy the ride.
4. Kids Bicycle Helmets. They should wear them, even if they are in the trailer.
5. Treadmill/ Bicycle Trainer/ Home Gym Equipment. Sometimes you just can't make it out the door, or the kids are too sick to go out, or the weather is COLD! (I don't even try to pull a trailer in the wind). It helps to have an alternative plan for working out at home when the kids are asleep, or otherwise entertained. You can usually find quality used equipment from local classifieds or resale stores.
