Tuesday - 6 miles with 5 hill repeats and it was cccccooooooooolllllllldddddd 42 degrees
Wednesday - 6 miles. 3 on my own and 3 with the dog. Easy pace.
Thursday - 8.5 miles 5x800 intervals below 3:30 and 1x1000 at...who knows, I messed up the lap function on my watch for this run.
Yesterday the dog and I ran into a pack of Javelinas and then today I went around the corner at the end of my street only to find 4 coyotes. Its like I live in a wildlife preserve.
Truth be known, the dog and I disagree on which animal is more dangerous. She see the Javelinas and I can tell that the only words running through her mind are PLAY? PLAY? PLAY? PLAY?; however, when she sees coyotes all the fur raises on her back and she means businss. And when a 100 pound mastiff/lab is agitated, it's quite a site.
As I said, I disagree with my dog on who is the actual threat. The coyotes know we'd be a challenge to bring down and they steer clear of us. The minute they saw us they ran off the road and into the bushes. On the other hand, the Javelinas get all panicky and that, I find, is most unsettling. There's no telling what they'll do. If the freak out enough, I think they would charge. Give me a coyote anyday.
