slept:6.5 shoes: Salomon Speedcross Pro - Blue
The forecast was for heavy rain with a break between weather systems. Browner, Storm, 'Bent and I made maximum use of the weather break by combining several of our planned activities: trail running, dog exercise and dog swimming.
Hardy Lake Provincial Park has a beautiful, rolling forest trail that circumnavigates Hardy Lake with some technical footwork to keep it interesting.
Browner and I ran behind Storm and 'Bent, who each had one dog attached to their waist (the untrustworthy one!) and one dog running free, although sometimes they had to grab the leash of the off-leash dog too. The dogs had their preferred sequence on the trail so Browner and I couldn't help with that.
We stopped for several (dog) swims and photo breaks; I deducted some time for that.
What a nice 2-dog family! :)
Here's a 3-second video clip of trail running with 4 dogs.
And another one near the parking lot. The rain had started in earnest by then. We went to Gravenhurst to pick up a latte at my brother's cafe before heading back to the cottage.
Then we met up with Timato and Teeny Tiny to enjoy some cozy post-run relaxation with the wood stove burning while it poured outside.
