Lazy Dog

So the Gabriel/Gehrman family has begun a fitness challenge to last up to Christmas. Walk/Jog (or bike or play tennis at the equivalent) 7 miles each week. So long as you complete that weekly, you win! I love it. I get to take Coda out and... well... drag her up the last hill every time we do a certain route because she is apparently not capable of withstanding the Texas heat AND walking 3 miles. I'm going to have to start walking with her every other day and going on my own to get my heartrate up for the required amount of time. I want to lose 10 lbs. by Xmas. How do you get the dog to keep up with you??? She's a young'un! Just over a year with GREYHOUND in her blood! Crazy mutt. Love her though! She keeps me entertained. =)

That's so funny. I'm jealous! Indy outlasts me most days. But she definitely crashes harder. We hiked on Saturday for 4.5 miles, and she was finally just walking nicely next to me (instead of leading out front) after like 3 miles. Once we got in the car to drive home, she was snoring in the back seat within minutes! She and Coda would be great friends, I think. :)

We should figure out some way to get the two of them together! =)
