I got attacked (but not bit) by a dog on this run.  I have never been so scared on a run in my life.  The owner of the dog kept telling me "it's okay" but wasn't grabbing the dog's collar.  It was chasing me, barking at me, growling, snapping... and wouldn't go away.  I am not ashamed to admit I started crying and screaming uncontrollably for the owner to get her dog.  It was the first time I honestly had wished for a tazor gun, and hoped a car would hit the dog.  But, I lived...

I'm mad at map my run.  I mapped my run, it said 3.13 miles, then I "saved" it and it saved it as 2.03 miles.  How annoying.  But, whatever.  It was 3.13 miles, and I know it.  And it was with my youngest two kiddos...  a double stroller... and headwind.  But I'll take that over a dog any day.  (I had nightmares last night.  Stupid dog)

pretty uneventful... which I'm happy about.  I did run oast a dog that looked like tiger, and my heart sped up, but this dog didn't do more than look at me. :)

I wasn't going to run today.  I dropped Melanie off at school and was being lazy... and then my cute little 2 year old says "mommy, going run run" (both my girls call my running "run run").  I said "do you want to go" to which she replied yes and get her shoes on... then went and found mine.  I have a good little coach.  I'm very lucky.

It felt like I was running on the sun.  Boy was it hot.  Next time I am NOT going at noon.  But, it was a good run.  I ran to my friends house (almost 4 miles) and then ran another 6 with her.  I was going to run home from her house, but looked at the clock and realized it was later than I had hoped, so I got a ride home instead.  I have a half marathon next weekend, so I'm happy I didn't push it.  It is a good recovery long run.
