shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Longer than usual night-time dog walk. Part of it being longer is I wanted to be late enough coming down the next street to the N of us that the chances of running into unfriendly dogs would be less. So who did we run into on the next street (at 10:22 pm -- at the 2.2 mile mark) -- the bad Labs of course! Fortunately I saw them coming in from a side street when we were about 100 yards from the intersection, but Hanna knew it was them and starting going wild as she usually does.

8 AM

Walking (Dog walk) 35:10 [1] 1.82 mi (19:21 / mi) +13ft 19:13 / mi

Earlier than usual morning walk, and with Hanna only (Homer acted like he'd rather stick around while Cheryl was eating breakfast, hoping for handouts/leftovers).

Hanna got a meet a very young labradoodle puppy (maybe 10 weeks old) on the next street.
5 PM

shoes: Montrail Mt Masochist Mar 2011

Vetting the remaining control locations at Durand, with Hanna.
9 PM

Walking (Dog walk) 49:16 [1] 2.21 mi (22:19 / mi)

Nightly dog walk. Instead of around the block, we took the Rt 104 path from Bay to Maple, then headed back the same way. Last night we had an encounter with the "bad labs" (two ladies who walk three labs, from the next street over). They've always been quite nasty to Homer (note that being nasty is not a typical trait for labs), but Homer has the maturity to just ignore them. When Hanna first came anywhere near them, she must have sensed their nastiness because she herself acted quite nasty towards them. They've never come too close to each other (a street width apart is the closest), but Hanna tugs very hard on the leash, barking and snarling all the time. Not real pleasant. We don't encounter them more than every 3rd or 4th walk but just to make sure, we didn't venture over to their territory tonight.

Pickleball 30:00 [2]

Webster Park. I only played 2 games because our daughter had gotten in very late last night (1:30 am) and we hadn't seen her then; I didn't want to be off all morning playing pickleball if she were up and moving around.

Nice morning for pickleball; not too hot and very little wind.
8 PM

Pickleball 45:00 [2]

Rec Center, indoors.
9 PM

Walking (Dog walk) 58:05 [1] 2.34 mi (24:49 / mi) +5ft 24:46 / mi
shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Late-night dog walk. GPS was stubborn in getting going, so first 0.41 miles was not logged (added in manually).

Dogs were both in slow-motion mode tonight for some reason.

Running race 26:30 [4] 3.14 mi (8:26 / mi) +13ft 8:24 / mi
shoes: Hoka Conquest

SSGT Javier Ortiz Memorial 5K, from Frontier Field (part of the Puerto Rican Festival). First race I've done in ages -- couple of years I'd say.

It was a pretty small field so it didn't take too long to get to the starting line, but still I decided to start my watch when I crossed the line instead of when the official start was.

It was supposed to be a certified course, but my GPS said 3.14 miles and trailsnail's said 3.16 miles, so it may have been a bit long. In any event, I'm calling this the distance that my GPS said rather than 5K.

Finished 4th out of 5 in my age group -- not too good but what more can I really expect. I was only 26 seconds out of 3rd place at least.
11 AM

Walking (Dog walk) 50:05 [1] 2.58 mi (19:25 / mi) +7ft 19:22 / mi
shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Walk around the big block, plus a short out and back to give them a bit more exercise ...
3 PM

Pickleball 1:55:00 [3]

Indoors at the Rec Center. Played in some pretty decent games, for the most part.
9 PM

Walking (Dog walk) 39:31 [1] 1.6 mi (24:39 / mi) +5ft 24:35 / mi
shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Late evening dog walk at a more leisurely pace and more rambling route than usual.

Event: Laramie Daze
 
10 AM

Pickleball 45:00 [2]

Outdoor courts at the Rec Center. Played like crap the first game, then improved to semi-bad for the next two games. Then I thankfully had to leave because I had to be somewhere at 11:30 and take a shower in between!
12 PM

Walking (Dog walk) 1:07:43 [1] 3.15 mi (21:30 / mi) +14ft 21:25 / mi

Walking (Dog walk) 58:45 [1] 2.99 mi (19:39 / mi)
shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Early afternoon dog walk. Got caught in some sprinkles near the end, but glad we weren't out 10 minutes more because it started pouring.
9 PM

Walking (Dog walk) 36:00 [3] 1.71 mi (21:03 / mi)
shoes: Asics Gel Venture 4

Late-evening dog walk. No GPS carried; over to Finn Park, around the parking lot, and back.

What's the deal with this weather, it's late July and I had to put on a jacket???
