After work tonight, Hisako and I took the dogs over to the Brick reservoir for a run.  Willie came with me while Nugget stayed with Hisako.  There is no question that Nugget has gotten a little chunky as he's aged, and he's not as fast as he used to be. But Willie is still full of energy all the time so I decided to run him down.  I was planning on doing 6 which is about 3 and a half laps.  I knew he could run with me for a while, but I didn't think he's make it the whole way.  It was too far too fast.  But he did make it through 3 mile @ 22:30.  That's pretty good for a dog who's legs are only maybe 6 or 7 inches long, but after that he started lagging a bit.  So we ran in the opposite direction until we caught up with Hisako and I handed him off.  They kept running for another 20 minutes or so while I finished up.  My run kind of turned into a progression run at the end, I really pushed it on the last two mile and finished 6 @44:30.  Great way to end the week, tomorrow will be rest.

Total for the week: 26
