DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4 
  DISTANCE: 8.6 km DURATION: 1 hour 21 minutes
Rock, paper, scissors, Miras nose! One guess on who (or what) won.... Mira and I were absolutely ecstatic about today’s run. What was old became new again! Because of the warmer temps a layer of snow disappeared and all the delicious smells from days gone by had reawakened. So my friend had her sniffer to the ground for most of our journey. Until we hit the off- leash area that is, and then like a rocket she took off in flight. Bouncing around, running up and down the ridge. The more I watched her the bigger my smile got! After that Miras nose was back at work and took us back to where it all began. Thanks for a fantastic run today my friend! Pleasure as always! 1 poo and several pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
 DISTANCE: 7.7 km DURATION: 1 hour 20 minutes
So, off we go into the wild white yonder, making our way into the sun; running around, trying to keep a little warmer. Hey! Nothing can stop Mira and Tracy from having fun! 😁 There was no way I had any chance of keeping up with my gal pal today, due the to extra clothing I was sporting (I could barely walk 😂) So, in an effort for Mira to have the best time, we just headed to the off-leash area and stayed there for the majority of our run. The two of us were some what laid-back about the weather and started fooling around.... The temperature went up a whole 2 degrees since we started don’t ya know and It made a world of difference! So, we took full advantage until my friend started to lift her foot which thankfully wasn’t until we were almost back. I had a brilliant time today Mira! Thanks so much! 1 poo and several pees. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY # 3

There’s one thing I know for sure and that is if your going to choose to live in Calgary, you have to have the spirit of a spartan warrior! Mira absolutely has that spirit and she made me feel like I did too.😊 We conquered our adventure with our heads held high only because mine frozen in that position( just kidding 😂) I tried my best for Mira's sake as she loves the winter but when she started to get a tender foot I knew even the bravest of soldiers have their limits. So, with smiles on our faces, we headed on back to base camp. Thanks for making today’s run a very pleasant experience Mira! 1 poo and several pees. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1

Mira! So glad to be back to our regular scheduled programming 😬 My friend and I are like peas and carrots! She had an injury on her foot and I am fighting a head cold. We both had some issues but that didn’t stop us from having the best time on the first of many adventures this year. I opted for the flattest route I could think of..... I’m happy to be back but I need to ease into it😜 So Mira and I hit the streets and made our way over to Scenic Acres where my friend could spread her wings and fly! By the time we were making our way back Mira's bandage fell off and our enthusiasm for running was done (her foot opened up) so we took our time basking in the warmth of the sun until we made it back to the castle. Thanks for a fantastic time today Mira! You're a peach. 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1

HAPPY SNOW DAY MIRA! I could see her smile from a mile away (no) but was Mira ever excited about today’s run! The more it snowed, the bigger her smile got and the faster she tried to go (and the trickier it got). So we headed across the bridge to freedom but not before attempting to catch a bunny. I’m laughing because I was still attached to my friend when this all went down and I’m pretty sure we looked funny running in circles through a bush.... quite the adventure!🥳 After that, we carried on and in a round-about way made it back to where we started. Thanks for such a fun time today Mira! 1 poo and several pees. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Good Morning Mira! So, I had this dream about you last night and I wanted to share it. I showed up as always but to my surprise your family decided to adopt 5 more pooches!😳 I was in a bit of a panic because I didn’t have enough leashes but, for some reason I had Christmas lights on my truck so I took them off, attached everybody together and away we went. Soon to be flying in the air! Oh my what would Freud say?!?!!!😂 Anyways, Mira was an absolute delight today and I had a fantastic time as always. Thanks for being such a joy Mira! 1 poo and many pees today. CHEERS! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Mira and I had a smashing good time on our adventure today.😊 We hit the trails a running and then her tracker kicked into high gear! I didn’t mind at all because she took us down some streets we haven’t seen in a while. There were a lot of wee pooches out with a lot of things to say to my friend. But Mira just ignored them for the most part and in doing so was rewarded with some off-leash party time. Who am I kidding she would have gotten it anyways.😆 On our way back, we came across Santa’s clothes! Who knew that his dry cleaner lived so close?😬 Thanks for a fantastic run Mira! Great way to start the week! 1 poo and 1 million pees. Cheers! The Scoop: nothing to report. Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Mira! Today was all about support. My friend was honing her tracking skills and it didn’t take long before her nose was on the ground and we were in hot pursuit of a....... Coyote! Not far from the house we looked in the bush and caught the hind end of a very healthy one running away from us. Ya that’s right Mr. Coyote don’t mess with us! After that excitement, it was all about bunnies, squirrels and safe places to party! We may not have broken any speed records today but sometimes it’s just about getting out and enjoying yourself. Thanks for making me smile Mira! You're such a joy to be around, my friend. 1 poo and several pees today. CHEERS! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY   DISTANCE: 9.1 km DURATION: 1 hour 24 minutes I’m titling today’s adventure “SOG”! What pray tell does this stand for you ask? Sniff n’ jog to be exact! With so many delicious spells out there today, Mira couldn’t just couldn’t fill up her nasal sensory power fast enough! With the slightly warmer temps today, I thought the off-leash area would be packed but to my surprise it wasn’t. We headed for a safe zone to free range so there was less chance of running into a coyote carnival. We then made our way back with a short trail and a bit of bushwhacking (lost the trail). Thanks for a delightful adventure Mira! You are a sweetie pie! 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy
DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
  DISTANCE: 1 hour 31 minutes DURATION: 7.9 km
It was just one of those days folks! Shortly after we departed for our grand adventure, Mira’s sniffer kicked into high gear and never shut off.😆 It was kinda nice and dare I say relaxing. We made our way through the hood, while Mira’s nose was committed to the ground I had a chance to look around and enjoy all the Halloween decorations.😊 We ended with a short trail before making our way back to the abode. Thanks for the delightful adventure Mira! CHEERS! The Scoop: 2 poos, 18 pees. Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY 
 DISTANCE: DURATION: 1 hour 22 minutes
For the first 10 minutes or so Mira and I tried our best to help reunite a lost pooch with her family. We did find her but she wouldn’t come to us, so a lady watching us came over and I explained the situation, gave her a couple treats, (thanks Mira) and she took over for us! I hope Coral found her way home🏽 Next, Mira watched as I slid all over the place and landed on my butt a few times. What Mira? You know I don’t get my winter legs until spring! With only one option left, we headed over to the off-leash area so my friend could really enjoy this snow day.🥳 Seeing that smile is always worth it! Thanks for just being you my friend. Pleasure as always! Cheers! The Scoop: 12 pees, 1 poo. Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Our run today was Mira-culous! (I'm SURE no runner has ever made that pun before LOL). Mira was waiting quietly for me at the front door to start our run today. As soon as we stepped out onto the pavement, I think I heard a very cartoonish "WOOSH" as Mira set us off on a lightning-fast pace. Gone are the hot-hot days of summer and here are the days of long-sleeves, mitts, and scarves. EXCEPT when you are running with Mira! Holy moly she can run! We hardly ever slowed down. I was happy for her many pee stops if only to get a few seconds to catch my breath. I was having so much fun and trying so hard to keep up, I nearly forgot to snap some photos. What a travesty that would have been as Mira is such a beautiful gal. She pulled me all the way to the coulee, but I resisted entering on account of all the rain we've had. So we made our winding way up and down, and up and down, all the hills in and around the neighbourhood. My buns are still on fire! I hope I get to run with this speedy gal again soon! The scoop: TONS of pees, 1 poop. Runner: Gabi 
  DISTANCE: 8.3 km DURATION: 1 hour 29 minutes
Mira and I had a marvellous meander through the hood today.😊 All was well in the world except when we came across a tree walker (squirrel ) that kept taunting my poor friend.😂 I’m laughing because if I was that small I’d probably do the same thing.😈 Anyways, we made our way to a field where Mira got to frolic on her own before making it into the coulee. It is a little slice of heaven in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the big city. Things definitely slowed down as we got lost in the power of nature’s beauty. Mira and I then crawled back up to the streets and found our way home. Thanks for another excellent adventure sweet cheeks! Cheers! The Scoop: 20 pees, 1 poo. Runner: Tracy 
  DISTANCE: 9.2 km DURATION: 1 hour 26 minutes
One thing I can say for sure is that both Mira and I were in much better spirits today. Last week was a little rough on us! Anyways, we trotted along nicely until we reached the off-leash area across the bridge and then it was a free for all! Mira did what she wanted and that smile of hers was HUGE! I aim to please! We then finished the loop and headed on back to the hood where my friend slowed right down. I had a feeling she didn’t want to go home just quite yet so we took our time heading back to her crib. Thanks for a lovey run Mira! You're a doll! Cheers! The Scoop: 23 pees and 1 poo. Runner: Tracy   DISTANCE: 7.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 39 minutes Miss Mira had some issues with her back side today so we took it easy. That’s okay because I’m still having issues (from the waist down) myself.🙈) At first, my friend was wondering why we weren’t doing our usual sprint but when she starting getting hot our lallygagging pace was just fine with her.😊 As we meandered through the hood, I saw a lot of runners out and (I can’t believe I’m saying this) I was a bit jealous. We then ran into DGR runner Denise (nice to see you!) and had a quick visit before hitting a short trail and heading on back to the cool comforts of home. Hope you feel better soon Mira! Thanks for the lovely meander today my friend. CHEER! The Scoop: 27 pees. Runner: Tracy
