The duo becomes a trio again

Today Miss Dog and I were honored with the presence of our Gentleman Friend (aka my darling husband). His calf had been bothering him recently, but he's been diligently stretching it -- and that apparently paid off because he was able to run our entire route. Hooray! It was great to have him along for the extra company and because he's great at helping fend off mean dogs and carrying the poop bag.

The route we picked out happens to be one of our few options without a massive hill somewhere along the way. In fact, it seemed like this particular route was more downhill than uphill. (OK, I know that's not possible!) So it may become my favorite route. But it involves running along Marrett Road where they're currently doing sidewalk construction, so we'll probably wait a few days and hope they'll finish that up soon.

T-Diggy and I also ran on Monday and put in a lackluster performance. My fault -- I was coming down with something and actually had to take half a sick day later in order to take a nap. When I am feeling draggy, I try not to let that stop me from exercising because sometimes that draggy feeling goes away during the workout. But that was not the case on Monday, alas. But by Tuesday all was fine. Phew!
