Nice job Brian! The dog leash thing bothers me too, especially since it's usually due to the owner being on the phone or too busy chatting with others. It's great that you're out getting your dog some exercise but please stop him from causing danger to others! Thankfully running is good for stress relief :)

Thanks Melissa!! I got kind of intimidated looking at the course route; it goes from downtown to my neighborhood, around the lakes, back to the U, and then to St. Paul. I think this is the case where being familiar with the course might be bad, I've run or biked almost all of the sections, but stringing them all together seems nuts!!
