Lakeland Hills. 5:30 a.m. Felt pretty good this morning. Slightly tired from the Japense food Nick and I had the night before at Tokyo's resturant. Food moon this morning! Ladies there: Janet, Lindsey, and Niki. I was a few min. late because I spent so much time scraping the frost off my car this morning so it was atleast 32 degrees while running. There was a little puddle of water still frozen that the dogs like to drink out of that go on our run. Regular route but turned L up hill instead of right, so it would be a little shorter route near the end. It was nice to do a little under 5 miles this morning but it was also hard because it made for an extra hill! I'm getting better at the hills though:) Felt so nice to be done! My next run will be a long run this weekend! (Sunday)

Way to go Anya! How many dogs run with you and what kinds are they? Cooper wants to come and get in on that fun! :-) How far are you running on Sunday?

There are usually 2 dogs. I can't remember exactly what kind but I think they are part lab. Cooper would love coming out! Can you come out on a week day early a.m. sometime? We run Lakeland Hills! Sunday just Lindsay brings her dog. But if Lindsay or Janet run they almost always bring their dogs! Wish you came out today Nicole, IT WAS PERFECT!!!!
