DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 ![]() DISTANCE: 9. 5 km DURATION: 1 hour 31 minutes Happy Wednesday Mira! Today is bittersweet as I won’t be seeing this gorgeous gal for a while. 😶 I wasn’t going to think about anything but making our last adventure (for awhile) be the best it could possibly be! Clearly judging by the smile on Mira’s face, she had a great time and so did I . We perused about waving, nodding and avoiding as much as possible. Who knew I would actually miss the company of humans? Just kidding. When I finally got to release my friend from her shackles, she nonchalantly meandered about not in much of a hurry. Maybe our furry friends are starting to slow down just like the rest of us? Anyways, we took our time just soaking in the sunshine and enjoying each other’s company. Thanks for always making the time we spend together special Mira! Looking forward to seeing you after this is all over sweet cheeks! 1 poo and many pees. Cheers and take care! Runner: Tracy

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 ![]() DISTANCE: 8.2 km DURATION: 1 hour 22 minutes Mira has a way of making you forget all that’s unpleasant in this world as soon as she smiles. It was another quiet day in the hood’. We did however come across some kids enjoying their extended vacation tobogganing! I’d be doing the same exact thing if I was in their shoes. Mira and I headed over the bridge to the off-leash party zone so she could run at maximum capacity.... and she did. We then meandered on back through the trees; lost in our thoughts until we were done. Thanks for being such a great friend Mira! 1 poo and many pees. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 ![]() DISTANCE: 7.7 km DURATION: 1 hour 19 minutes Miss Mira and I had a delightful time today. The two of us started out running but then when the sun made a strong appearance and the millionth thaw began, our pace slowed. Mira’s nose hit the ground and it was then it was declared a good ol’ fashioned sniff n' stroll. No worries! I prefer to be outside anyways. We hit a short but icy trail before making our way back to the comforts of home. Thanks for a great time today Mira! Many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1 ![]() DISTANCE: 8.3 km DURATION: 1 hour 10 minutes Miss Mira couldn’t wait to get this show on the road! She had a little more pep in her step today so when we hit the off-leash area, she took off flying! Such an elegant creature she is. Mira’s like a glass of fine wine - she gets better with age. As for myself, well, that’s questionable. We came across other pooches; 4 to be exact! Some were free rangers and some were not and Mira behaved accordingly. Well done Mira!🏿 Thanks for such a great time today, my friend! You're an absolute gem. 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1 ![]() DISTANCE: 8.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 23 minutes Happy Monday Mira! With the fresh fallen snow Mira was happy as a clam at low tide.... I haven’t used that one in a while. Or was she as happy as Olaf? Hard to tell but her smile says it all! As we were approaching one of Mira’s favourite party spots, I looked to my right and saw Scout (the coyote) hunting voles, he/ she looked like he/she was having a really good time. It’s a good thing we were headed in the opposite direction. Moving along my friend got distracted be a tree walker (squirrel) so we watched it for a while until Mira got distracted by a bird Too funny! Anyways, we hit a short trail and returned home. Thanks for a great adventure today Mira! 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5 ![]() DISTANCE :10 km DURATION: 1 hour 31 minutes Surprise! My, oh my, Mira was sure ecstatic when I showed my face this morning. We had a delightful time. Yes, indeed we did with only one slight hiccup. Well it was a little bit traumatizing but only to me.... You see, Mira and I were trotting along nicely and then she stopped. Okay? She decided to hunt! But the vole came out of the snow and headed towards me, ran on top of my foot, and it looked like it was going to keep moving up my leg!😳 So, I screeched and kicked my foot. The poor thing went up in the air and Mira with her cat-like reflexes hoovered that creature up like nobody’s business! Woo woo! Mira was on cloud nine and so proud of herself, I felt a little sick and we carried on. Thanks for a great run today Mira! 1 poo, 1 vole and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 ![]() DISTANCE: 8.2 km DURATION: 1 hour 21 minutes I felt less than stellar when I woke up this morning so the thought of being congenial wasn’t high on my list of priorities today (it was about survival). But, when I saw Mira’s sweet face through the window, it got me out of my nasty funk I was stuck in. 🙂 Mira tried her best to get me to sprint and soon realized it just wasn’t going to happen, so we headed off to the land of freedom and my friend got to spread her wings and fly! This always makes me happy to see Mira so content. After that, we did a loop ending with a short trail before heading back to the castle. Thanks for your patience Mira! 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy 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 ![]() /DISTANCE: 7.2 km DURATION: 1 hour 10 minutes 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 ![]() DISTANCE: 10.4 km DURATION: 1 hour 41 minutes 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 ![]() DISTANCE: 9.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 31 minutes 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 ![]() DISTANCE: 9.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 24 minutes 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 ![]() DISTANCE: 10 km. DURATION: 1 hour 31 minutes 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 ![]() DISTANCE: 8.7 km DURATION: 1 hour 27 minutes 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 |
