State of NSC- May edition

A monthly take on my world.

Weight: 199. Under 200!! Yay!

Current Feeling: Looking forward to a busy month!

Running Stats in April
Total Miles Run: 47.37 miles
Time Spent Running: 9 hours, 21 minutes, 46 seconds
Calories Burned: 7,181
Longest Single Run: 12 miles

Current aches and pains: My arch nemesis- plantar fasciitis. This morning on my 3 mile run I had a weird pain on the side of my right foot. I intend to ignore it until after the race on Sunday.

Current Favorite Song: “Just Can’t Get Enough”- Black Eyed Peas

Looking forward to: Finishing the half marathon. I think that it will be time to ease down on my mileage or stop running altogether to nurse my heels back into health. It would be a shame to lose all of this endurance that I have though….

Annoyed about: The fact that Buster can’t be bothered to use the pee pads. At night he is great and has been holding his pee for 4-5 hours…but during the day he is up and about more so he pees on the floor instead of the pee pads.

Proud about: Surviving the 12 mile run. That I made it through half training without killing myself.

How are you feeling with the start of this new month?

Yay for <200 lbs! That is a great feeling.
We never used pee pads for Maya. I actually kept her leashed to me, and when I noticed her sniffing like she to pee, I would take her to the door, scratch with her paw and let her out.
She caught on pretty quickly...

Good luck on your race, and congrats on being under 200!
Having potty trained many puppies, throw away the pee pads. Crate training is the way to go for sure! Guaranteed you can have Buster trained within a week if you do it faithfully. Directly after eating and immediately after waking, pup goes out. Praise like crazy. Good luck!
