Cross-Training

For me, cross-training is an important part of my running training. It could be because I can't focus too much on just one thing. But with two puppies, cross-training usually involves them. Most of the time, it's a walk or a hike.

We are very fortunate to live in a rural area and to have access to miles of trails right out our back door. Today, a freak power outage cancelled school, so I seized the opportunity to head out the door with the puppies for an hour-long hike in the woods.
