running log, 8 & 9 WITH DOGS!

May 10, 2010 17:18

After my success with the neighborhood run in the rain, my next challenge was to take a running partner.  Genbu has jogged with me before, but it hasn't been fun because he wasn't well leash trained. We've been working on this, since walking with two dogs who are really walking you could be dangerous.  He's gotten much better at not pulling, mostly he'll walk right next to you.  And Hina's *pretty* good when the distractions are minimized.

So Genbu and I jogged to the neighborhood park, around the park twice and back. It was good! It was hot, very hot. The highlight may have been a little girl asking me "where are you going?" the second time I went around the park.  In all, it was about a mile and a half

Since that went well, I decided to take Hina out the next day (today).  She was a most excellent jogging partner! I was suprised. She stayed right with me (except for when she got spooked by a nearby dog getting taken to owner's car).  We went over to the bike path nearby, just about 2 miles there & back.  The blisters are back, however.  Perhaps two runs in two days is blister recipe.

Time to check out the vibram website & see if others with Morten's feet have blister issues....
