the furry 5k
artan & i just got home from seward park and the furry 5k fun run. i was impressed with him! he made it the whole 3+ miles without fussing or even slowing down much.
given our jogging history, i fully expected to walk/jog him around 13+ minute miles. he’s the prince of distraction.
but this morning it was the running of the bulls. he was focused and ready and he pulled me the entire race. the old cross-country runner in me cringes to admit we came in around 33:47 (11+ minute miles) but for disobedient artan that was fantastic. that time includes a poopy stop, a leash disentanglement, and more than a few bottlenecks towards the start & cresting the hill.
there are two things that stick with me about seward park fun run: 1. the course is easy and 2. the course is pavement. good & bad.
artan was my little studmuffin and he did so well! we will definitely be doing this again!
