Dog Ran away = Great Cardio session!
Well, I went out to bring in the dog (Chocolate Lab named Nico) around 10:00 friday night and all I saw was the gate to the backyard hanging wide-open. Evidently my 3 year old son openned the gate earlier in the evening and we never noticed it… he had at least an hour head start so I had no idea how far we had gotten.
We live in a pretty large neighborhood so I hoped he got distracted nearby so I put in my running shoes and headed out. I ran at a good pace for about 30 minutes before tiring and changing tactics. I jumped on my bike and rode for another 2 hours before finding my boy just after 12:30 in the morning. For anyone with a dog, you know I was freeking out and the whole ordeal was very stressful… but what a great workout.

Very stressful indeed!!! And I get worried when my cat is gone for a couple hours and doesn’t answer me when I call her… Glad you found your dog!!! And got a good workout in!
