though the weather report said we weren't supposed to today, molly and i still rocked our usual 5k.  we just took it a little slower, and she wore her cooling collar.  it was just another day.

yesterday i had a meeting in Pittsburgh, and seeing the hills was just painful.  Years ago I attempted this race when the season had been too rainy and I had

5k runs!

dang girl. im impressed with your running. good for you. i am trying to get back into it a little. had some knee problems for bout 1 1/2 mo. so me and the dogs are doing 1 1/2 walks. which is a huge step for them, specially pie. its good for all of us. helping him learn to remain calm when we see other dogs and just enjoy the walk. he's getting there. i have added a "let's pick it up" command for times when he gets a bit too fixated on a dog and we start to run - i think at most i've run 1.5 miles with them and walked the rest. anyway. glad you have molly and enjoying your time with her. megan

well, i'm trying. since molly's around, i feel bad going for long bike rides and leaving her home, so it just makes more sense. congrats on getting longer walks- and any little running you're doing will add up to being in better shape!

it's funny how different molly's behavior is when we're running. like Pie- if she's running, she doesn't bother going for other dogs. it's almost like "i'm running so i'm better than you walking dog- see me go?" so cute. she's still a nut for squirrels though. a problem i really need to solve somehoe.
