5x800, for the win!

Today, I did my penultimate interval workout before the Half Marathon. I'm not going to lie--it wasn't that fun. However, I feel pretty satisfied with my performance:
  • 1-mile warm-up - 9:57
  • 5x800m - 3:56/3:58/3:54/3:51/3:53
  • 3-min. rest in between
  • 1-mile cool-down - 9:31
My IT-band started twinging this afternoon, so I better stretch it out and hope for the best.

Oh crap. Bodger is sleeping behind me, and he just let out a really stinky fart. It smells like poop. Here he is all groggy and grumpy about being woken up:

Yay about whatever a penultimate workout is!

And those dog farts are the WORST!

Nice run, man! I hate intervals, but I they've definitely made me faster!

Bodger is so cute. Even when you talk about how gross his farts are, it's freakin adorable.

Again with the speediness.
I've started to think that dogs exist primarily to fart. That's all mine has done for the past month or so. Lovely.

Is farting only common among smaller dogs? I swear, I never heard/smelled my labs fart. But those small to mid-sized dogs...boy they can sure stink up a room!

Way to go on your 800s! You are going to rock your half.

I'm glad you still love Bodger, despite his extreme stinkyness, haha. :-)
