Some other small accomplishments
February 22, 2004
I came very close to qualifying at both dog agility trials today. These were much longer courses than I've been used to, and the last course was the hardest as we were doing "Jumpers with Weaves". Unlike regular dog agility, there are no obstacles that require the dog to slow down, so it goes VERY VERY fast. In fact, we were almost qualifying until the very end, except we were moving a bit too slow.
I'm glad in a way it was a missed obstacle that NQed us, as its very disappointing to lose on time.
Also managed to increase my treadmill rate by .5 mph. It's easy for me to go faster, when I know I am only 20 minutes, and since it was a long day, I only had 20 minutes for doing the treadmill -- if I exercise too late, it's hard for me to sleep.
So far, I'm managed at least 20 minutes on the treadmill every day since I got it.
