Day 6

Went for a good 1.5 hour walk in the woods with the family. Scary thing though; we were walking with Maisey and out of nowhere a rottweiler ran up and attacked her. Everything felt like slow motion; it took about 15 seconds to separate the dogs. I was so scared. The owner did get his dog off, but not before Maisey was cut under her eye. I love dogs to death but if you know your dog is aggressive then LEASH them.

After that I did not really feel like working out. I played on the computer and read a bit, totally wasting time. The guilt got to the better of me so before dinner I hit the treadmill. I was hoping to break my 6 minute run endurance. No such luck. However I was walking at a 4.0 between sprints with an incline of 3.0. I was able to go 2.2 miles in 30 minutes. The Iron Girl has a time limit of 60 minutes for 3.1 miles, so my confidence is growing.

No, I did not get on the bike today. I am just so afraid of looking like an idiot riding around in my sub-division. My fear is that I will not be able to bike the hills and all of my neighbors will see the defeat of my walking my bike as opposed to riding it. I'll get over it; eventually. Tomorrow is another day.
