Today I repeated the week 2 run... I'm staying with a friend for a few days so it was in a new area. Apart from two stray dogs running at me and barking, all was well... I had to grab a stick to make them keep back. I didn't used to be afraid of dogs, but there have been so many stories about dog attacks, especially xl bully dogs, that it makes me nervous! These weren't bully types, but some kind of mixture, but big. Anyway, glad to get back in one uneaten piece!

Yikes! Running in a new area - excellent! Dogs ... not so much.

A couple of dogs ran up to me last week and just cavorted about; the owner said they were just being friendly. I said - if they're friendly they wouldn't be running about my feet...

Pleased it turned out well for you!
