Finally read through all the new posts....This place has been busy!
Today is a rest day here, which really means close to 5 miles walking with my little guy. It's also the Monday of Taper week 1, which means I'm more pent up than normal, knowing that tomorrow's assignment is only 3-4 miles, after I've been running 5-9 every Tuesday! Ugh, I KNOW this taper means that I'll be rested, and I KNOW that I won't lose any of my cardio while on it, but it doesn't help me feeling like I'm being lazy! 14 days of Taper, then my Race!5 -
Doggie update - I talked to animal control and they talked to the owner. He was told to keep it on his property, like you said @5beautifuldays now that he knows how to get out he will continue to get out (just like the past weeks). So my only option is this.... every time I see the dog to call the sheriff's department and then start a "dog at large" case, then take that case to the warrant magistrate and have a warrant put out for the owners arrest. I said to her "really so he can kill me in my sleep?". So now I have a kid who is scared to walk or run on her route and I can't walk my dog around a neighborhood that I pay taxes to live in while this rent paying non tax paying jack off has a dog that wants to kill my dog. Her other advice...carry a gun and use it. God Bless the South.5

Crazy that the one attack doesn't warrant putting the dog down or relocating it.2 -

Honestly he wasn't just running around he ATTACKED US. I'm so freaking mad right now.2 -
@skippygirlsmom I'm so sorry to hear about what happened! If that had happened to me, there's about a 30% chance that dog would have died of acute lead poisoning right on the spot!
People who do't control their dogs are as much of a menace as the dogs themselves! I'm so glad all ya'all are OK!3 -

I'll take care of this little problem one way or another. I won't have my child afraid to walk around her own neighborhood because of this dog.2 -

Wish I had the energy to run today but no go....I walked the treadmill. Better than nothing g they say. I feel like i'm in a funk from just eating extra over the weekend...I don't want to undo my progress. Seems like when people start to notice my weight loss is when I start to mess up and slack off.1

One weekend won't undo your progress, get right back at it. You can do this!

You got this! One weekend is a speedbump and that's all. Just get back in the groove and you'll rock it2 -
You're right! I'm working on my negative talking...I have to ignore the negative voices..just read that here on one of the more recent MFP articles3

Got my pilates and strength done plus a little extra cardio. Stretching and rolling. My right calf is sore so working on that. Also my hamstrings have been getting tighter and tighter for awhile now.....so I finally got out the yoga blocks I bought and did some toe touch stretching but to the blocks instead of toes because I've never touched my toes in my life....and wonder of wonders! My hamstrings are looser than they've been in sooooo long! I am ecstatic over this5
