Mark does the first walk

 

I get walking with mark after the first time Dixie gets her stitches out. Her first long walk.


Mark and I go walking.

This photo is 😊 good, mark takes a photo since I left my phone in the vehicle. 🚗 and the trees are still very green yeah some are changing but it was awesome Mark let me use his phone to take this photo with us and the trees 🌳. End of September still very green.

We do five km exactly I was tracking it to do it exactly. Ended right at the vehicles. A good 😊 time cause I think we were both feeling a bit negative walking in the heat. He said he had 90 minutes I did it in 60 minutes.  So hopefully he wasn’t late picking up his kids.

Walking for five KM is good 😊, no running, but thinking about running in November: we did see one runner with his dog and a lady looking for her gray dog 🐩. 


Dixie is tuckered out, have to say Mark And I  get in a conversationalist day sort of missed these last 14 day to walk.




Haven’t walk for 14 days and Dixie is below average now for her monthly active minutes. It’ll take

Some serious walking end of month to catch up in four day. I guess will plan for October being better.


Much thanks 😊 to Mark for getting out for a walk, to do five km.  In itself, just a walk is accomplishment to a good 😊 Day.  If we had time I suggested doing ten km, but I though we could do it in an hour and that’s all we had time for today.


Dixie sleep 💤 is good 😊 
Her activity has sure suffered and hear last two weeks


It sounds like you had an interesting walk with Mark, even if his conversations were a bit bothersome near the end but a pleasure to walk with at the beginning. It can be tough when someone’s or both are chatty, especially if the topics dive into heavy or irrational subjects and a healthy walk.


It’s great to hear that Dixie had her stitches removed and is doing well otherwise. Keeping her activity levels up is important, so hopefully, you can work in some more walks to help her catch up on those monthly active minutes. It sounds like you’re already planning to make October a better month for her!


Have you thought about incorporating different walking routes or even varying the times of day you go out? Sometimes a change of scenery can make walks more enjoyable for both you and Dixie.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  🏃‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run 🏃‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants 👖 from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs 🐕. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
