Two Babies and a Dog

That's what I ran with today. Technically it was one toddler, one baby and a dog, but that just doesn't sound as cool.

Again I ran two minutes, walked one minute, and did this for twenty minutes. I then finished my usual walk for an hour. I wanted to punk out at one point, but I'm glad that I finished. It wasn't so much the run as it was the walk that came after it.

On my run I crossed paths with a couple running. They said something clever to me about my work being done because the kids were asleep. How cool is it that they thought I was like a real runner and thus wanted to do witty banter with me? Suckers!

It was a beautiful day to be outside. The only thing that pooed things up was that somewhere near the base someone was doing what I hope was a controlled burn. The last half mile of my walk smelled like a camp fire, and we were getting bits of ashes on us. At least it was a beautiful 70 degrees with a nice cool wind.

I just started taking the dog with me on my walk/runs. I usually struggle with her pulling me along, but the last few days she's been really good. In the beginning I want to punt her in the butt, but she shapes up. She's also good to keeping my motion going forward. I even think I was faster because she was pulling me along. I hoped the run would wear her out today, but when we got home she was still up for catching the ball.
