Running Iron Mountain

Man!! It has been HOT!!  We are ready for fall so we can start hiking again.  Mommy and I took advantage of the one cool day last week to do a trail run up Iron Mountain.

It was a cloudy day mid week.  Not many people on the trail.  Mommy has been training for a Ragnar 24 hour trail race with the Leash Your Fitness Trail Dogs team.   We haven’t got too many training runs in because of the heat so we went for it the first chance we got!

Of course we started early like we do on all of our runs.  It was so foggy when we started that we couldn’t even see the top!

It was super fun to run up Iron Mountain.  I am really fast! Mommy can hardly keep up.  Although she has me trained to stay very close to her when we are on the trails.  I listen (most of the time) because I don’t want to lose my privileges.

We got to the top but couldn’t see much of a view!

I didn’t care, I was just happy to be on the trails again. It has been a HOT summer and we do NOT hike or run on the trails when it is hot.  It is not safe for us dogs.

It cleared up by the time we got back to the bottom of the mountain.  It is always fun to look back and see what you have accomplished!

We are looking forward to our first hike of the season coming up.
