8 years

 It was cold and slushy this morning.  I originally was going to run on the treadmill but Booker was looking at my indicating that was not an option.  

Originally I put on my 3 layers with the intention of just taking him for a walk in the slush and then would run on the treadmill later.  But once we got out the door I started a light jog that eventually encouraged me to keep going.

I didn't even realize until over halfway through the run that it was January 3rd.  Why was that important?  It marks 8 years of me running at least 1 mile every day!  I can't believe what started as a 30 day experiment has turned into 8 freaking years!

We made it back and I was tired - 5 miles on slushy wearing 3 layers of clothes is challenging!  But I'm so grateful to have Booker in my life to encourage and push me!

Later in the afternoon I ran some errands and made a stop at Lowe's.  I just had to run in and get something quickly, but I have been feeling so bad for Sisko.

He is used to being an active dog, and he wants to get out there, but I just don't want to risk him ripping that stupid CCL.  But it's been 2/5 months and I can tell it's wearing on him.

So I took both dogs in with me.  They of course, got lots of attention and Sisko especially was thrilled to get attention and love from a bunch of people.
