The Run

21 October 2005 One Comment

So, I did manage to go out and get on the road today.  Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite the distance that I wanted to do.  I ended up taking the roommate’s little dog with me, and this thing is a wimp.  It can’t do anything.  I spent a whole lotta time arguing with it to stay next to me and not run across me.  So, I end up pulling in the leash and he figured out he was supposed to be next to me.  After we got acquainted with the rules, I started running a bit.  We ran for maybe ¼ of a mile, before it just gave out.  The dog refused to move another inch, it literally just lay down and rested its head on its paws and just sat there.  After about a minute, I figured the dog was done for.  It was really dark, so I couldn’t tell if it was still breathing or not.  I yanked on the leash, and he got up and it was at this point that I decided to head back to the house.  We walked back at a fairly gingerly pace, but it was still a walk.  On the plus side, I did get out and do something on the road, but on the down side, it wasn’t nearly enough.  Such is life.

Run Stats:
Terrain: Cement sidewalk
Distance: unknown
Time: approx. 30 minutes
Pace: Unknown
Noteworthy: The dog was with me, I thought it was dead, but it wasn’t. Whew.
