First run for 2 weeks so determined to get out today. Set off a bit late, around 10am. Weather dry, overcast, no wind and chilly. Walked down to the park and then to start of the old train line where we started running. Squiggy runs off the lead on this trail, he loves chasing squirrels ๐ฟ and runs VERY fast! We did a loop today, running back down the lanes and a very muddy track (see photo). Finally Squiggy went off the lead again as we rejoined the old train line. A satisfying steady 8k.

Sounds like a great run, sometimes all the better for getting muddy ๐
Might have to rename Squiggy to Squelchy! ๐พ๐โบ๏ธ

One of our original Old English, a 55k giant, loved to run through muddy ditches; so the lower half came out brown and the top half was still snowy white and grey. Cappuccino dog! ๐

Well done ๐๐๐ running in mud is so hard, you must've needed extra energy to complete your 8k! I bet Squiggy had the best time! Not sure the squirrels did though ๐๐

Sounds like a lovely run. The footpaths are really bad at the moment aren't they and the ones that go down the sides of fields are dug up by the tractor wheels. But its still worth getting out there, muddy feet and all.

Aww, I wish my dog would go on a run, I take her out and then 5 mins later she sits down and refuses to move unless itโs to head back home. Trouble is sheโs a Great Dane so thereโs no budging her!
