DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 
 DISTANCE: 8.8 km DURATION: 1 hour 58 minutes What a pleasant and uneventful outing with my gal pals this morning. Sometimes those are the best! Lately the way things have been going this was a nice change. Mona and Reilly were so easy going today that sometimes it was hard to get them going! Not a lot of action for these ladies today. Every once in a while even our furry fast-paced friends need to stop and smell the roses... and they did! Not to worry as you know I’m up for whatever my friends need or want to do (for the most part) Thanks for a delightful time today ladies! I thoroughly enjoyed myself! 2 poos for Reilly; 1 poo for Mona and many pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
  DISTANCE: 9.2 km DURATION: 2 hours 7 minutes
I had to keep my adventure with Mona and Reilly a touch more civilized than I think they would have preferred. My ankle is still tender so we (I mean me) hobbled down the path enjoying all the sights, sounds and smells that nature had to offer. They kept tempting me with the trails but I had a destination in mind and I knew they’d be pleased once we got there. They were! FREEDOM! I watched as my furry friends bounced around hunting for snacks while I enjoyed a little break.😬 On our way back, the girls had some snacks left by the neighbourhood birds I suspect..... yuck or yum depending on which way you look at it. Any how, thanks for a fantastic time today Mona and Reilly! 3 poos for Reilly; 1 poo for Mona and many pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

I was a little bit delusional when we set out on our adventure this morning. Being the optimist that I am, I thought that after a long weekend Mona and Reilly would have oodles of energy and that we were going to run and party like no buddies business! Well, those pipe dreams ended quicker than expected and my friends decided that they were in charge or rather their sniffers were. Let’s just say it wasn’t the most interesting route. Mona and Reilly had me going down more back alleys then I usually prefer but they seemed to be enjoying themselves so who am I to judge? Thanks for the GREAT tour today (the back alley tour) ladies! Pleasure as always! 2 poops for Reilly; 1 for Mona and a plethora of pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4

Today’s escapade went pretty much as I suspected. Mona and Reilly were so happy to see each other that they made sure it was a lengthy visit! 🥰 As we headed on up that long and arduous hill to our surprise there was Denise and Charlie coming towards us. So, of course, we had to stop and sniff (the dogs not Denise and me) and I handed out snacks to all because that’s what I do. After those pleasantries, we headed on our way with a little trail exploring and some swimming. Mona and Reilly joyfully running around always keeping one eye on me, more like one eye on the snacks! Eventually making our way back to where it all began. Thanks for a fantastic time today ladies! 2 poos for Reilly; 1 poo for Mona, and many pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4

The gals and I decided to go for brunch today.... just kidding! Although we may as well have. Mona and Reilly were on the peckish side so I had to do some negotiating. I suggested that in order for them to get the delectable meaty treats I was packing in my pouch, we needed to move a little. I wasn’t concerned with speed or whether it was forward, backwards or even sideways we just had to go.😬 So Mona decided that she was in charge of the route and Reilly also had to put her two cents in and made it be known she was okay with all of this as long as she could check things out along the way. Who knew I was dealing with a couple of lawyers?!?!!😂 Anyways, as usual we had a magnificent time. Thanks ladies! You made my day! 2 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona and a plethora of pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

It was another skin scorching/fat frying kind of a day today! And MUGGY woo wee! I tell ya, we Calgarians aren’t use to all this fantastic weather! Now that I’ve stated the obvious I’ll get on with my story. Today was a day like no other. Mona and Reilly decided that no matter how much I wanted to run it just wasn’t going to happen. So we headed out for a power walk (not really) instead. On our way, we met a cutie pie named Missy sporting her best summer dress and loving all the attention she was getting. Mona and Reilly didn’t understand why she had clothes on as they were ridiculously hot. So after that I persuaded my gal pals to trust me and we headed to the trails with ample amounts of water. A few passes back and forth and my friends were done. Thanks for coming out and keeping me company ladies! 2 poos for Reilly, none for Mona and several pees each. Cheers and enjoy the weekend!

My friends and I had a marvellous time on this blistering day. There’s only one way to beat the heat so Mona, Reilly and I headed for the shady trails. We stuck to the same trail going back and fourth a few times only because Miss Mona made it known she was not going to do our usual distance. Frankly, I couldn’t blame her and Reilly didn’t seem too upset about her leadership skills! With the creek in abundance and at a nice flow, the gals had plenty of chances to cool off. After the fun and games, we headed on back to the cool comforts of home. Thanks again ladies for brightening my day! 2 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona and a plethora of pees each. Cheers and stay cool! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6

Today was interesting.... the gals and I started off running as we were finally all on the same page. Like 3 finely tuned Olympic athletes all with the perfect rhythm and just then, my nose started to bleed. Well, there goes that fitness plan! Although I don’t think Mona and Reilly were too concerned. After that, it was a free for all as I watched my gal pals have the best time as I tried to keep it together. Thanks for your patience today ladies! 3 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona, and many pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

I could tell this was going to be another lallygagging adventure when both Mona and Reilly headed straight for the same shady spot and had a lay down. Keep in mind we were only a half a block away from where we started. So in my infinite wisdom, I thought what better place to spend some recreational time but “ The Party Pond! “ Needless to say these lovely ladies were very pleased. They hopped on the party train and would still be going if I didn’t take control as the only responsible one on today’s journey. Shocker, I know! After we climbed out from the zone, Mona and Reilly slowed down to a crawl. I can’t really blame them because by this time of day it had gotten quite warm out so we casually made our way back home. Thanks for all the laughs ladies, I had a fabulous time! 2 poos and several pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

We were definitely a dysfunctional unit this morning!🤪 Mona, Reilly and myself just couldn’t get a rhythm going. There were leashes, legs and pooches everywhere. I stood my ground for about 20 minutes and then I caved as they knew I would. My gal pals were more interested in keeping cool than anything else so I did my best to appease them. It was a slow climb up that long Tuscany hill because every pocket of shade these ladies found was an excuse to linger. When we finally reached the freedom zone there wasn’t much running around except to jump in and out of the creek. I really didn’t think it was that warm out but then again I don’t have to wear a fur coat! After lallygagging awhile, my friends had enough and let me know it was time to head back. Thanks for taking me out today ladies! Pleasure was all mine. 4 poos for Reilly (lucky bowels) 2 poos for Mona (not too bad) and many pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6

Today’s route was brought to you by our friend Mona. She was in a take charge kind of mood so Reilly and I just followed along in anticipation of what was to come! I figured that Mona was feeling a little peckish when she took us on a tour of some back alleys looking for snacks and Reilly jumped right in with no hesitation whatsoever! Next we needed to wash all those tasty treats down with some refreshing water so the gals took me over to a couple of their favourite spots for a cool down. At this point in our adventure there was no rhyme or reason to what was going on so we just meandered about until we found ourselves back home.😊 Thanks for a delightful time today ladies! 2 poos and several pees each.

I think that the humidity was weighing heavy on my athlete’s today as we didn’t have to do much to work up a sweat. Reilly and Mona weren’t particularly interested in expending those calories they were taking in on our journey today So, they nonchalantly sniffed their way to the top of the hood until it was time to release these party animals and..... nothing. They looked at me and started sniffing. I’m not sure they even realized they were free at first because it took them a minute to take off (not really). I guess even the biggest party animals need a break! Anyways, after my sisters from another mister came back, we headed on down the road and back to the abode. Thanks for making my day ladies! 2 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona and numerous pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4  DISTANCE: 10.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 50 minutes
I didn’t even get a chance to put my two cents in during the council meeting this morning. Mona and Reilly voted me off the island without any hesitation whatsoever! No fair.... they will always outrank me and I have come to accept this. We started off moving forward (sometimes backwards). These gals had all intentions of taking their time. When we neared the top of the hill, from a distance I saw Denise and Charlie so we had a quick yammer hello as they were on the other side of the street. Then an unexpected thing happened, my friends started to move quicker! It was great so then we headed over to a trail so I could let these gals go and they were pleased. After that party, we kept up our pace and then we had the pleasure of running into Michelle, Huxley and Aoife! What are the chances? When we finished visiting with our friends we headed on back to the ranch. Thanks for making this a great day ladies! 2 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona and numerous pees each. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3
  DISTANCE: 10 km DURATION: 2 hours 4 minutes As we trotted along from tree to tree, Mona and Reilly were leaving their DNA all over the place! I managed to steer these gals in the direction of the pond and were they ever glad I did. So much so that they had absolutely no desire to leave. While Mona did laps Reilly ran around joining her friend in the water once in a while. These gals were having so much fun but I knew it was time to head out when I started getting attacked by the birds! They must have been protecting their nests. So we headed on our merry way; eventually making it back from whence we came. Thanks for a fantastic outing today ladies! 2 poos for Reilly; 1 poo for Mona and several pees each. Cheers!

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #7
 DISTANCE: 10 km DURATION: 1 hour 58 minutes
Today was a good day as Mona and I got to hang with our old friend Reilly! We missed her terribly and I could tell the feeling was mutual.🥰 The three of us headed out and it didn’t take long before I was being completely ignored. It’s okay these two had a lot of catching up to do. They reminded me of a couple of old ladies out for a stroll catching up on all the latest gossip! It was rather cute. And as if this day couldn’t have gotten any better but it did! Lo and behold who do we run into but DGR Runner Denise and Charlie! We stopped and chatted for a minute while the pooches did their thing and then we were off; casually making our way back to where it all began. It’s good to have you back Reilly! Thanks for a terrific time my friends! (Denise and Charlie too!) 2 poos for Reilly, 1 poo for Mona and many pees each. CHEERS! Runner: Tracy |
