Well done! You can definitely do this :-) Just remember slow and steady, speed is not what matters. Enjoy week 2!

Running with your husky! You'll have to restrain it a little or you're doing alternate speed and slow running ;-) It's great to be able to run with your dog though, very motivating.

I have a haulty for him to stop him pulling so he runs at the same pace as i do lol i made the mistake in forgetting it on my first run and i was doing different speeds all way round but last 2 runs ive been at a steady pace 😊

Do you have a canicross lead? They attach to a belt rather than losing in your hand which is much better for balance when running
