Went for a 1/2 hour walk in the evening. It felt good to finally get out there in the clean, cool, crisp air & get moving again.
I know it's not much relative to what I was doing 4 months ago & earlier (i.e., all those 9 & 15 milers, et... read more

Today was our last dog walk/run before I head back to DC. :( Lily was a little less peppy than usual; she ran about half of the loop today. Of course, I was hoping to run the whole thing with her, but guess she was having an off-day. ;) Oh well; it ca... read more
Today's probably the last dog walk/run before I head back to DC. It was a crisp 54° F outside this afternoon; it went well, minus a post-run twinge in my left knee, which will hopefully be diagnosed soon by a doctor upon my return.
I was in the mood to run, but Lily was a bit tired for our second walk. However, she still managed to run about half of the loop. Tomorrow's our last walk for a while, so hopefully she'll have more pep then. :)
Did dog walk/run #2 to calm the dog down. Parents were having visitors & it was just easier to get the dog out of the house for a while. :)
Lily was pretty tired, so our outing turned out to be a lot of walking interspersed with running, that is,... read more
Beautiful warm & sunny day (67° F!). Thought Lily was going to have another furious scamper down the hill today; however, she was a bit less energetic than usual. She stopped to walk a lot more, but that might've had something to do with the war... read more
Lily was very eager to run today. We took off in a mad dash down the hill & pretty much ran the entire loop. When we got home I gave her ice cubes & cold water. She's now collapsed in a heap on the floor. :)
Beautiful warm day (65° F). Lily & I went for another spirited run around the neighborhood. Heading back to DC on Tuesday, so am hoping the weather will also be pleasant as well. :)
Did quick but energetic/vigorous run around usual loop w/Lily. Have extended stay here (at parents' place) upon their request. Extremely busy taking care of parents' household & helping them with various activities, so was very happy to squeeze i... read more
It's good that you can get in a little exercise while you are there. Good luck with your doctor visit.
3 months agoI'm glad your knees seem to be holding up. Have a good visit with your folks.
3 months agoHope things work out and that you are having a great visit.
3 months agoAw, thanks so much, everybody!
3 months agoAnother stellar run/walk with Lily. She was a little sleepy at first but once she got into it, she was running pretty quickly, especially on the downhill parts. ;)
Great job!

Sounds lie Lily was ready to get after it.
3 months agoDon't we all wish we could just collapse like that after a great workout....
3 months agoMickey: Bulldogs are always ready to get after it, especially if there's a person, bunny rabbit, or tractor lawnmower up ahead. ;)
Anne: LOL! I know some people who do that. ;)
