My people recently went to Boston to run a marathon and a 5K. It’s not that I am not proud of my people, but it was only 26.2 miles! Of course that is amazing considering they run on two legs. Yours truly could have covered that distance in half of the time it took my server gal. She ran the marathon in 3:46…1:30 easy for me. My server guy…ran a 5K and is actually posing in a photograph with his finishers medal! Puulease!! I could have ran that backwards. I was glad to see them return…the stupid cat was starting to bond with me. It was not that I was beginning to like the cat but he was concerned about getting his treats, so I let him play with my baseball and played a couple games of tag. You know I swat him and then he runs I pretend to chase him. Ok so maybe we bonded a little…he is still a stupid cat!
In the photo is my server gal who ran the Boston Marathon for the second time! She is tough…I am not going to post the photo of the server guy. Too embarressed for him!
See you outdoors soon.

Most people if asked would say Christmas is their favorite Holiday. Not Me! Oh sure I get Christmas gifts…doggie toys in a cute stocking. I know, I know… enough to make you gag, but I go along with the whole experience for my people (dog owners) who stand there watching me chew on the latest cutesy wutesy doggie toy and exclaim “look how much he is enjoying that toy.” I am only thinking if I chew the stuffings out of that new “cute toy” then maybe I can get a real treat. Like maybe some of those country ham and biscuits! My favorite is the new ball trick… my people throw the new ball and then I bring it back while doing a few wind sprints to show my people how much more fit I am than they could ever be in their in life! I don’t care how many Boston Marathons they rack up!! After a few of these wind sprints I place the ball of out their reach and stare at my people until they get the message!!! GIVE ME A TREAT!!!
Yep, give me Thanksgiving any day or every day for that matter! I am currently working out so I can hold more of that Turkey and dressing and yes some of that pie made from those orange goofy looking things they put on the front porch so all these kids can get treats…HEY, maybe they are onto something there. I like this idea…now I need to think of a costume for next year.
In the meantime, keep up the running. More room for the good stuff in one week and three days. I even got the fat guy (one of my people) to run so he could eat more this year. He is the goofy one pointing his finger at the camera…I am of course, the fit handsome one!! Maybe I will go as the fat, goofy guy next Halloween…just borrow the hat…and make a fat man suit!!!
See you outdoors,
