A run to remember

We live in a great neighborhood that has lots of parks and greenways. I walk our dogs usually twice a day and through the greenway (sometimes letting them off the leash). It is really nice with lots of flowering plants, a path that twists and turns beside a creek. Well H. and I decided to go for a run, for exercise, and take the dogs. This might work if you had one dog or two extremely well trained dogs but with ours, it became "a run to remember"! We each held one and headed out. There were multiple stops to pee, poop and smell and then the tangling of the leashes and the prickly ball obstacle course on the path. We are lucky none of us (dogs included) ended up with a twisted ankle or worse. If anyone had been watching this spectacle from behind, they would have died laughing!!! One dog would stop, the other, go full speed, then change direction as the stopped dog started catching up. If anyone had been watching this spectacle from behind, they would have gotten a good laugh! It was HILARIOUS! I don't think we will be repeating this for a long time.
