When we got our dog many of our friends (Sarah!) said we would not be able to take him with us to do the outdoor things we like. Although our dog is 5lbs dripping wet he can still run with me up to 4 miles (and still beat me), go hiking/camping, and now we know he can snowshoe.
We just recently spent our Easter weekend running ourselves into the ground. I, with the encouragement of my crazy husband, ran my first trail race, a 25K run. My goal was not to be last and overall I was not; however, in my age group I was 6th out of 7, wahoo (that was a close one). Now a 25K (15 miles) sounds like alot (and IT WAS!!!) I cannot feel too bad for myself jon ran 50 miles he left 3 hours before me and came in 2 1/2 after me. All in all, it was a fun race, beautiful scenery, and we were not charged by the buffalo. The best part of the race is watching jon try to run, let alone walk, the day after.
Hope all is going well with everyone else.
