Paddy the Pacer Puppy

I drove to the Y for a run on the treadmill. Well, I was supposed and hoping to see Mr. R there. But he wasn't. Ms. M wasn't running today. So, I took it to the treadmill and ran 0.5 miles - boring, mind-numbing, inspiring-killing 0.5 miles. 
So I went home. 

I had a plan. I was going to take the girls out for a run. 
Paddy and I have been "practicing" doing this running thing together with walks/runs. 
Today will be THE day.

Meet Paddy the Pacer Puppy.

Buttercup and I just followed Paddy Wag's pace. 


Not too shabby. 
Apart from having to stop and let some big trucks pass, we did well. 
Paddy is definitely a good pacer.  
Here's our splits.
Mile 1: 10:53/mile
Mile 2: 11:16/mile
Mile 0.54: 11:46/mile

Do you run with your dog?
What's the most challenging thing you have to deal with when running with your dog?
Any tips/advices for me?
