My runs went better than they’ve gone in a way, but still no Q’s. I still need to get faster, meaning lose a bit more weight, get better on my conditioning, etc.<\/p>\n
One of the judges made a comment I wanted to object to at the time. We had arrived at the site yesterday to find no electricity, and it was too dark to run in the building. She said, “remember, this isn’t the cure to cancer” when we were talking about whether or not individual dogs should run. However, I beg to differ, and several other people with chronic diseases felt the same way.<\/p>\n
Dog agility might not be a cure for cancer or another other chronic disease but it IS a way to help me manage and enjoy my chronic disease. I will be honest, if it weren’t for dog agility I wouldn’t be monitoring my health as much and I would not have a need to be physically active.<\/p>\n
However, I still wouldn’t have run with out lighting. Not only do I worry about Marcie’s older eyes being able to see the course, I had trouble seeing the course.<\/p>\n
As it was, the lights came on just in time, and Marcie and I had the first clean standard run in a while.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
