Finishing up the first of two weeks without bootcamp. I'm definitely not getting the same intense workout I would get under Sgt Laura's screech but the important this is I'm still moving and now I'm sharing my healthy new habits with my 5 year old....dog. This morning, moments before my alarm went off Reggie popped out of bed and started nudging me. I told him last night we were going to run in the morning and I guess he was anxious to hit the road. Well I made him wait with anticipation because I first put on a 40 min hip hop workout dvd. When it was time for the cool down part of the dvd I got the yoga mat out. Oh I remember why I have to keep putting away the yoga mat. Immediately as I'm getting on my yoga mat, Reggie tries to bulldoze me over so he can lay on the yoga mat. No I'M going to do downward facing dog!
It was finally time to hit the road for our run. Boy he picked up some speed today, I tried to slow him down telling him to pace himself but he was determined to do more than prancercise. He was already much improved at staying by my side rather than bobbing and weaving in front of me but I also got more of an arm workout forcing him to stay by my side. We made it the entire loop and he never threw up. Yay! Always a nice thing when you don't throw up in the neighbor's lawn. I think I'd like to continue running in the morning with Reggie even after bootcamp starts. Maybe on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
What an inspiration you are!
