Winter Challenges

Bunny here at the keyboard with a few fitness challenges to share.

Most of you know that I have a big race with Pip tomorrow.  I've been doing a lot of training to get myself into racing form.  It's not easy maintaining your figure when there are all these dog bakery treats and pup cakes around, but I've been motivated. 

Anyroo, I came across a couple of challenges that I thought I'd share with all of you.  One of them is the Idita-Walk.  It's a physical fitness challenge that you can do with your humans.  Basically, you try to walk for thirty minutes for thirty five days between February 1 and March 31, for a total of 1049 minutes, which is the amount of miles between Anchorage and Nome, Alaska.  The focus is just to get out and walk with your humans a little every day.  You and your human can both register.  So far I've logged in sixty minutes.  If anybody out there wants to join in, we'd love to share notes!

The second one is shorter and has to do with a big event that a lot of people are all excited about here in the States on Sunday.  That would be Super Bowl Sunday.  I'm going to be honest, I don't care who wins, but I do enjoy watching the commercials.  Especially the funny ones where the dogs outsmart the people, like that Doritos ad from last year.  Anyroo, Subaru has had some funny commercials with dogs this year and now they have the Subaru Game Day Dog Walk Event.  It's simple, sign up and pledge to walk your dog on game day and you get some cool loot.  So, see if you can get your humans off the couch and paying attention to you for a bit on Sunday!

I hope these ideas help you to get your people motivated to get out there with you and enjoy a little bit of winter weather.  It's fun as long as you dress for it and you don't overdo it.  Now, I'm off for my pre race nap.  Wish me luck for tomorrow!
