Well we didn't do 6 miles but Miss Myrtle got quite a work-out today. At my daughter's soccer practice the bottom field was wide open...no one there...so Miss Myrtle and I started doing laps around the edge of the field. I think we did a total of 8 laps and Miss Myrtle ran atleast double that as she would run full bore about 20 ft in front of me...then zoom back to my feet and then back out 20 ft...she did this for all of the laps we did. Needless to say my little girl is snoozing logs right now big time...she was even too tired for her supper!!! Poor baby! Unfortunately I celebrated our little work-out once home by eating 2 ice cream bars...can you say "sabatoge"?? Uggg...I need to lose 65 more lbs and at this rate it just ain't gonna happen!!!
