Training Log Archive: Bash

BazingaDog and I ran over to Palgrave East and toured the double track. We ran through sleet for awhile, as is typical on April 24 (!?!). Halfway through, I got a text from 'Bent saying that he was leaving work so we met him near the Reddington entrance and ran home with him and BulletDog. 'Bent did a few fast hill intervals along the way since he's getting ready to race with the Fast Boyz at the Sulphur Springs relay. He would come back and meet me afterwards as I chugged uphill like a normal mortal.

Happy Birthday to Goose and to my Little Brother Dave!

If you're thinking of adding a nice pooch to your family, a local friend tells me that a family is looking for a good home for their 7 month old purebred chocolate Lab. They love him but they both work and just moved to a new home; they have a baby, a toddler and another dog. They are feeling overwhelmed and guilty that Bentley is not getting the attention and exercise he needs. The owner, says "He's a great dog and it breaks my heart". He's excellent with kids and has his shots. If you want more info, I can forward the e-mail with cute pics.

BulletDog came to our family from a similar situation when she was 11 months old. It was so much fun to introduce her to the forest and see her snoozing happily after the first good run of her life.
