EW. I absolutely HATE it when owners don't leash their dogs. Let's get something straight...I don't care how much you think your dog would never, ever, ever chase or bite someone. Just keep your damn dog on your yard, and under some sort of restraining method. When running in unfamiliar places I used to carry pepper spray with me, but I haven't lately. However, summer is coming, so I might throw it back on the fuel belt. If nothing else, I'll have water to squirt them with, if necessary. As for me, I did get 19 in on Saturday, 14 of them in the rain. Was a tough run with a fair amount of elevation change, but hey, that's what Boston is gonna be like in a few weeks.

Glad you survived the dog Paul. That's one problem I haven't had yet. Sounds like some good runs otherwise. 19 miles, and getting ready for Boston. I can't wait till I'm reporting that comment. More inspiration. I might need a couple more years of running though. I ran 4 Sunday and 4 today on my comeback week. Looking to participate in the Bridge Run this weekend.
