Annual Furry 5k

The Furry 5k has become an annual event for Manny and I.  I wore a t-shirt today that was from the 2009 event and I think we have done it every year since then.  Every year I say I'm never doing this again because it's total chaos but I didn't say that this year.  I think it's because we now have a child so everything in life is chaos (but Keaton didn't get to come to this because him and the dog would have been too much chaos for me to handle by myself).

 Every time we have gone for a walk this past month I told Manny he was training for the Furry 5k. The training paid off because we did 3.1 miles in 34 minutes and that included walking up the giant hill and stopping for water.  If it was up to Manny we would have stopped for water and that would have been the end of it all (as you can see from Manny staring at the water in the top picture at the start).  He took a dip in the lake before the walk and then took a dip in the pool at the dog water station which was meant for drinking, not swimming.


After we finished, we got all the free dog treats, which was A LOT! Manny also got a doggy tattoo, which was something I've never seen.  It was temporary so he won't be stuck with the weird image forever.

This dog loves attention so events like this are perfect for him.  He also loves to sleep and is passed out next to me right now!
