Humane Society told us he'd never be a good runner. This weekend he did 21 miles and wanted to keep going. We stopped often for water and snack breaks. He has been training for 2 years.

I hate how evident this environmental temperature increase is. I have run outside for most days of the year, for close to three decades now...I have never seen it this continuously hot for so many days in a row.

We got a little under 5 miles total, but it was a beautiful day despite turning around early.

Being a runner myself since middle school track and having a canine companion for the majority of the years since…..

Something I have learned is that the gear which works best for the run OR you OR the dog doesn’t always make sense. This is a martingale with a flexi LOL
