I had a stomach ache during my run :P but I don't know if it was because of dairy (milk tea at work) or choice of post-dinner (de)hydration…Slightly lower cadence at 182/min

Shady decided that she wanted to play frisbee over a run *grumble* Good thing I can just hop on the dread mill.
Opinionated dogs make the best running buddies:). Way to adjust to Shady's whims.

Do you know how difficult it is to move a 75lb of Shady muscle when she has decided upon something? She can drag 180lbs of dead weight hubby across the floor.

#dailymission Are you into barefoot/minimalist shoe running? Why or why not?
I was getting hurt wearing traditional running shoes that promoted a heel strike and found a minimal shoe forced me to ... read more
While they arent minimalist, my new running shoes do a similar job in forcing me to forefoot strike and are much more comfortable so I must agree that somewhat less is more! Though I could NEVER run barefoot or in the vibram 5 finger type shoes!

Hm, sounds like this woman likes aggressive dogs. Hopefully the Animal Control people will talk to her and you won't have to worry about her dog anymore.
Great run though!

I noticed a for sale sign on her lawn. I hope someone buys her place so that I don't have to deal with them. Hubby said she was just as belligerent when the (dead) dog tried to attack him and Shady last year.

In another month- those gravel roads will be too dangerous to run on - the red winged blackbirds will swoop you. I love running them, though. Awesome in the spring and fall :)

Yesterday was wet, slushy snow that disappeared really quickly. However, when Shady runs to catch her frisbee, she skids on the grass a bit and it tears out some of the grass :(
