Yesterday I ran 3.5 miles in 34.24 but I had to really pick up the pace for the last half mile so I could finish in under 35 minutes. I'm really trying to keep my pace at a 10 minute mile (or better obviously).
The REASON I had to push so hard to make up time for my last half mile is due to my lovely mutt, Buddy, who decided to be a giant jerk for the ENTIRE run. I found his choke chain, so I had hoped that he would be behaved and that my run would be awesome. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be. My lovely dog pulled me the entire way, barked and got aggressive every time he heard a dog, and decided it'd be cool to make three (count 'em THREE) pit stops while running. THERE IS NO TIME FOR PEEING WHILE I RUN!! NONE!! The little baby puppy understands this, but Buddy just seems to think rules don't apply to him! About half way through the run, Buddy started a fun new behavior - you'll really get a kick outta this one - he started charging every car that drove past.
So today, my shoulder is sore and I'm sending my dog to the hot dog factory.
I will be running alone today. Maybe he'll learn his lesson. But I doubt it...
