Ran from work to the East Falls Churh Metro after work today carrying a 15-20 pound backpack with work materials, clothes, etc. Total run after work in the 88 degree heat was for 5 miles in 40 minutes. I had to continually stop for water because the backpack was really weighing me down and I couldn't breath out of my back. It made it feel much warmer than it probably was. Now I know why I stopped running with my camelback.
Tonight, took Pepper for a nice 3 mile trot around the neighborhood across route 7. We did plenty of stopping for sniffs....more than I can probably count, but the boy is snoozing in the lay-z-boy so I did my job. My legs were pretty tired from yesterdays strengthening exercises at the gym, but I feel pretty good that I got in 8 miles today. My right leg seem to be doing much better since I started isolation workouts at the gym. That's all for now...off to Annapolis tomorrow for some doggie beach fun and a housewarming party at my bosses house. Doggies are invited too! :) Still no word on Denver but I'm forever optimistic.
