DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
 DISTANCE: 8.7 km DURATION: 1 hour 3 minutes
Good Afternoon! Today, Miss Lucy and I decided to take a new path to see where it would take us. Our path finished up near the airport. Lucy and I got to see some planes take off in the haze this morning. Lucy had excellent manners this morning, and was well behaved when passing another dog on the path. It was a peaceful morning run with few interactions. Lucy and I enjoyed each other’s company. Lucy is very much an eager beaver for hills and was giddy with delight to get to run the ones we encountered. It was a lovely run with Lucy this morning! The Scoop: poop x 1, pee x 3. Runner: Dru

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
 DISTANCE: 8.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 4 minutes
Good Afternoon! What a wonderful morning with Miss Lucy! This morning Lucy and I were running towards blue sky hoping for the best as we saw some ominous clouds in the distance. Luckily, we did not get the worst of the storm but got caught up in the tail end of it. Lucy and I enjoyed the cooler weather, and nice morning shower to put a little spring to our step. Lucy was very well mannered on our run, and lovely as always. Wonderful seeing Lucy's mom today. The Scoop: 1 poo, 3 pees. Runner: Dru DGR RUN OF THE DAY #9

Good Afternoon! Today was a lovely day with Miss Lucy. She was eager to see me, and brought me a toy to greet me. Our run today was an easier one compared to our Monday run. We enjoyed some peace and quiet on the trail, passing only a few people today. The sun was shinning bright this morning, Lucy and I stopped for shade and water breaks along the way. A great run today. Miss Lucy was wonderful as always, with great manners. On our way back home Lucy rejoiced as we found grass for some rolls and belly rubs. 💗 The Scoop: 2 pee, 1 poop.

Good Afternoon! It was a wonderful run with Miss Lucy today. We enjoyed the last day of August with a steady-paced run. We took some walking breaks near the end as Lucy was slowing down. We also had numerous water/shade/belly rub breaks today too. This morning Lucy was upbeat as always, and was excited to get some fresh air. We passed lots of smiling faces and shared some "good days"." On our way home, we decided to take a scenic route and run by some community ponds to say hello to some ducks. Lucy was very well behaved, and was a great listener when asked not to go sniff a neighbourhood cat out for a walk. Lucy had a blast and a half playing with a stick while she rested. As we got moving again, Lucy was eager to continue play and brought the stick as carry-on luggage for a short while. The Scoop: 2 poops, 2 pees. Runner: Dru DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

Hello Lucy! Time to venture into the neighbourhood. Hitting the pathways to her new favourite hills. Lucy didn't hold back. Let's go! C'mon, why are you going so slow? There's smells to smell and things to do. Let's explore! When the run was over, the water dish was drained. I guess we know the workout was good and Lucy was thirsty. Thanks for the run today Lucy!

Lucy and I were enjoying our morning run on this beautiful day! We all had no problems running downhill, though uphill was a little tougher in the summer sun. We kept a good pace for most of the way. The few times we stopped I think we both appreciated it. Lucy appreciated the ducks, geese and yes.. the gophers It was a good start to the day in the early summer sun. Both of us were happy to have a drink in the end. The Scoop: 1 poop and 2 pees. Runner: Charissa DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

I was so excited to get out for a run with Lucy! We both decided it would be fun to hit the tree paths alongside the suburban streets in the cool morning weather. Boy, was Lucy happy. Before no time at all, she was panting and slobbering all over. That is how we knew it was a successful time out. It was such a great way to spend my morning! The Doggy Business: 0 poops and 3 pees.

Good Morning! Today was a beautiful morning with Miss Lucy. It was wonderful to spend some time with Lucy after her 3-week vacation. Lucy was excited to see me and eager to get running this morning. We took it fairly easy to accommodate for Calgary’s heat wave and to help ease Lucy back into her running routine. We also took walking breaks and water/shade pit stops for rest. We mostly stuck to paved paths this morning but did find ourselves on some nice trails later on. Lucy’s happy disposition and lovely manners are always a highlight to my day. Great run today!

Good Morning! Miss Lucy was a joy this morning. Lucy was excited to get moving, and we set off to see where the wind would take us. We found some nice community ponds where we stopped to admire the ducks, sniff the area out, and have a few rolls in the grass. On our run, Lucy and I could smell some late breakfasts being cooked, it made both of our mouths water. We passed a couple dog friends today. We said hi and kept our distance. Lucy was thrilled when we decided to hit some dirt trails on our way home and get off the pavement. We finished our run with a nice hill, Lucy and I cheered each other on to the finish. Great run!

Good Morning! Today was a great run with Miss Lucy. We took the pace fairly easy as the weather was warming up. On our run, we found some new trails, and enjoyed the scenery. Lucy was excited to see some gopher friends today, but was a great listener when asked not to go say hello. It was a beautiful morning. We grabbed lots of rest in the shade. Lucy drank water and got belly rubs. Lucy brightened my day as well as everyone's who was on the path this morning! The Scoop: 2 pees, 1 poop. Runner: Dru DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

Today's weather was made for me but I think Lucy had a different opinion. I had barely taken her out the door and Lucy was probably thinking, "I'm super glad you brought me water." I thought today would be more of a low key day, while still taking in the scenery, and the smells. Lucy has less energy in this sun but that's okay because we had lots of fun taking as much shade as possible. Luckily, during second half of the run it was overcast. Sometimes the heat takes its toll. But that just means more doggy breaks in the grass. What a day to be a dog! The Scoop: 1 poops and 3 pees. Runner: Charissa DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1

It was very quiet this morning with Lucy. We could both tell it was going to be a hot one. As we paused in the field, I couldn't help but take a few photos. We headed to the pond and Lucy knew all about the gophers. I know so many times we were heading towards the furry creatures but this is not the time for that.. Lucy and I have now experienced the hot dog days of summer. What a day to be a dog! 1 poops and 2 pees. Runner: Charissa DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

Good afternoon! Today was a beautiful morning with Miss Lucy. We ran a couple community paths which were some hidden gems. The weather was great. We did see some rain clouds early on but luckily, all we had was sunshine. Lucy and I kept a nice running pace, on the way home. We did slow it down, and take more shade/water breaks as Lucy was wanting more rest time in the shade. As we rested, Lucy loved nose-diving into the grass and roll around. Lucy also enjoyed lots of belly rubs as we cooled down. What a wonderful run! Lucy was excellent! The Scoop: 2 pees. Runner: Dru DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Good Morning! Miss Lucy was a delight this morning! On our run today we ran past the fence mural in Coventry, which was lovely. Lucy got to see the Calgary Tower, the Northern Lights and other interesting landmarks. Due to the weather, Lucy and I slowed our pace and took water and shade breaks to cool down from the heat. Lucy also rejoiced in some belly rub sessions in the grass. Lucy was wonderfully behaved and excited to be out and sniffing new smells. The Scoop: 2 pees, 1 poop. Runner: Lucy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1

Good Morning! Today was a great run with Lucy. It was a pretty quiet morning only passing a handful of people. We decided to go up to a ridge where Lucy had her moment in the spotlight recreating the Lion King scene of Pride Rock. Hakuna Matata. As well, we took water and shade breaks, which turned into numerous belly rub sessions. Lucy was wonderful on our run, and was enthusiastic to see some new places today. On the run, Lucy did “butt scoot” two times. I informed her mom as Lucy has not done that before with me. It was a great weather for a run and Lucy was a great running partner to share it with.
