I'm not big into the running, but I'm glad it makes you and your dog happy. Nifty that your dog teaches you how to be in the moment like that.
Eventually I will find a more successful aerobic activity, but I'll stick with my weights for now. I want to be strong enough that no one can throw me around before I'm light enough again that someone does it. It only takes once being picked up by your hair and thrown bodily before actually being fat enough to have your own inertia seems useful. Maybe if I'd been fast back then, I'd have run instead of flown. (This is a newly discovered idea, that I'm fat because it was a subconscious choice, eventually I'll stop over-sharing.)
Have you those new fangled barefoot running shoes? Vibram Sprint or something? One of my favorite authors (based on the first book of his that I read and an inability to realize he actually sucks otherwise) just recently talked about the way running shoes ruined his joy in running. Specifically how he now runs like he ran as a child.
