By "run," I mean we go as fast as she's able. We'll start off at about 12MPH, slow to about 9.5MPH for a half mile, then we average around 7.5 for the remaining 1.5. It's not very good exercise for me, but we do crate during the day, so the lab in her needs to do something.

As far as getting to where she is, it's been a process. We started taking walks where I insisted she stay beside or behind me and on one side of me the whole time. She pretty much just does that now. I've taken her on actual walks of over 10 miles--we live next to a city lake with a 10 mile bike/foot trail around it.

Lately though, with this heat, I'm only able to take her out really early in the morning. Don't want a heat stroke or anything like that.

I'm leaving in five minutes to go and do a half hour on the elliptical, a half hour on the bike, and an hour of fusion class (yoga & pilates mix).

Not too much yesterday, just walking. I actually redid my walk on mapmyrun.com and it turns out I spend a total of 3.25 miles walking in getting too and from work. I took a bus part of the way yesterday though so I only walked about 2.5 miles then. Then last night fiance and I walked about another 2 miles...so 4.5 miles of walking yesterday!

It's all the same site I think. Once you actually track it as a workout, and not just map the distance, you can specify how exactly you did the activity.

Map my walk, run, hike, bike, etc all seem to be options at the top.

Haven't done anything today or yesterday, but when you rehearse for a minimum of 4 hours the other days of the week and a maximum of 12, I think I can get a break.
