Dog hurdling should be a new track and field event at the Olympics this summer in London. I mean, running can be challenging enough, buut when you have to swerve around or jump over dogs, that adds a new element of extreme to the daily jog. That's what today's run was like...every dog in DC must have been out and about at the same exact time I decided to pound pavement. We aren't talking 5 or so dogs over a 4.5 mile stretch...we're talking in the double digits. Luckily the dogs in DC all seem to be far better behaved than my dogs, by a long shot.
Anyway, swerving around dogs aside, today was beautiful. If you missed it you are one very unlucky person. The temperature was perfect, the sun was shining. I'm glad I was able to find time to get in a few miles.
