Walk with the Dogs

Today was a 3 mile run or cross train. I figured since it wasn't a "hard" train day, I would take the dogs with me. It's always a little adventurous when they're along for the ride!

I took JJ first and walked/ran with her for 1.5 miles. She did really well. She usually pulls so hard on the leash that I'm fighting her the whole time, but today wasn't nearly as bad as it normally is. Then, I went back to the house and got Jojo for his turn. He was SO excited and if you know Jojo, you know what I mean. He was jumping and barking and running from side to side. I think I can safely say that he thoroughly enjoyed his walk! I want to start taking them with me more often, but I know it's going to take some time to train them so they don't pull the leash. I haven't taken them with me through this training because I knew I just needed to focus on me and what I was doing. I think after the race though we'll make a weekly routine out of it. I figure if it's good for me, it's good for them, too.

Not a lot to report. It was a beautiful morning, and a wonderful walk/run. I'm getting really excited for the upcoming race!!!!!
