Day 6 of Roctober, and I ventured out around 6 this morning with the dog who hitherto had been reasonably good company. However, this morning he decided to hang back after about half a mile, then turned round and headed for home despite some encouragement from me to tag along with me. Therefore, I had to follow him back in case he wandered off somewhere else and put him back in the utility (where he sleeps). Very odd for a dog that is so very keen to get out normally, and indeed did appear to be his usual keen self until he got to the half mile mark. Anyway, I ran up to my normal 'minimum distance' mark, which worked out a bit more than the minimum when I included the earlier false start so he did me a bit of a favour.
Apart from the challenge of getting up a bit earlier than normal every day, this run a day challenge has so far not been too bad. It will be a week tomorrow, and the only issue is a slight niggle in my right buttock, but I get that now and again even without doing much mileage.
