Late post, as I completed my run yesterday after work.
It was very nice run along the canal with my dog and sun 
Very nice temperature, although maybe a bit humid. First longer warm up walk to reach the path, then easy 90 sex jog and walk. First 3 min run - what a pleasure, nice steady slow pace, quiet peace, steady breathing, sun, birds. Just wonderful! Nice walk break. Then 90 sec jog and walk. We passed by two dog owners with very little disturbing in my pace. And then, the second 3 min run came. For the first 2 min, it was good, but hard. The last minute or so, oh my running gods... I was praying for my tired dog to slow down, I was praying for everyone to disappear not to cause additional excitement in her, and for the run to be over with. Despite 2 other dogs on our path and 1 small dog argument, me stepping on some uncomfortable stone which felt like a hit just in the middle of my feet. We finished our run with nice long walk. She still had enough power to have disagreement with small dog O_O she is definitely gaining endurance and fitness level faster than I am 
80% of my stress gone smile on my face appeared. The next 15% of stress I got rid of during 40 min stretching, nice short warm/hot bath to relax leg muscles, and 30 min of guided meditation. No, I normally don't meditate. Recently, I've started doing so to check if it helps with stress. 10 min of sitting and concentrating on breathing helps. This was my second long mediation. I am not convinced about the longer ones. But I can swear for running+stretching stress relief
Happy running!
I just imagined my athletics teacher who saw me multiple times trying to pass 1.5km (<1mile) run without success. And yes, I was training and preparing myself to pass it.
