It was warm enough to do hill training today, but we have finally had snow. I figured I didn’t want to try charging up a hill when it is slippery. So I went back to the treadmill.
On Sunday I with a shorter running group than usual, because I was taking Harry the dog with me. He kept up well for the ten kilometers. The last two or three he was lagging, but he did finish. I’m sure he enjoyed it. After the first kilometer he had calmed down that I started letting him off the leash in safe areas. An interesting result of this was that when the group of runners was packed into the woodland trails behind Hawerelak park, he started expressing his genes.
He is a border collie cross, so he started herding the pack of runners.
No nipping or anything, but he started circling the group to make sure there weren’t any stragglers. I could have put him on the leash again but it didn’t look like he was getting in the way, and he seemed to be having a good time.
