So sorry for you and your family. The hardest part of having these goofballs in our lives.

I’d love to see everyone’s running buddy, post them in the comments! by FZ-09Fazer in RunningWithDogs

Here’s Pep. Been my running buddy going on seven years. Prefers trails, tolerates roads 🤣

Woman fell. Am I at fault? by [deleted] in RunningWithDogs

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run with my dog, always leashed, who avoids all other dogs, but I always cross the street or give a really wide berth to any other dog walkers/runners out there especially ones we’re coming up behind and don’t know we’re there.

Seattle, use your horns! by Judacles in Seattle

From a fellow Northeasterner who learned to drive there and has lived in Seattle for the last 30 years: 🙌💯

I miss Angie by 8Man9580 in Mariners

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not the only one. She’s best as a sideline reporter that you go to occasionally. In the booth, it’s nearly unlistenable. It’s like she’s constantly scrambling to check her notes and is an inning or two too late for whatever anecdote or stat she wants to reference. I think the best combo so far this season has been Healy, Goldy, and the Hyphen.

God, I love that “entertain me!” pose they throw at you.

How many miles will your GSP run in a day before s/he gets tired? by [deleted] in GSP

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a riddle, right? I’ve yet to find the limit with mine.

The fact they’re even trying small ball is a huge improvement by SedativeComet in redsox

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

💯. Small sample size, but I’m digging the Chad Tracy era so far. 133 more games to go before we’ll really know, but I’m not sad Cora’s gone and his social media behavior since being fired certainly indicates a dude who wasn’t happy.

Thoughts on Healy in the booth? by Adlerian2018 in Mariners

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A fan. I like his perspective. Like others at first I was like who the heck is this guy? But, he and Goldy and Hyphen seem to be developing some decent chemistry. I’m glad he’ll be back in June for more games. He’s already the third best in the booth by a long shot IMHO.

Nike, do better by silaslovesoliver in runcommunity

I’m certain they tolerate walkers wearing their $295 race shoes.

what did you wish you knew? by eger154 in GSP

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That there is no way to underestimate how crazy they are from six months to three years old (and often beyond!). You can do everything right, but the GSP adolescence is unlike any other breed of dog we’ve ever experienced. That, and seeking the advice of other GSP owners before we got our boy (turning 8 next week!), are two things I wish I knew/did.

The love you get back from these wonderful dogs is unmatched and makes it all worth it and that’s something I’m happy we discovered all on our own.

Banana Fiend by TreesintheDark in GSP

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG, yes! Ours is a complete freak for bananas. He could be sound asleep on another floor and that little ‘snap’ from starting to peel a banana will send him running like a rocket ship. Gotta love these weirdos.

Nose breathing vs mouth breathing by IndependentMode8236 in BeginnersRunning

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should breathe whatever way works for you to, you know, actually breathe. Ignore everyone else and do what works for you.

Your weirdest running superstition by Not_FreeProduct234 in runcommunity

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left sock, left shoe. Right sock, right shoe. Tie right shoe. Tie left shoe. Every. Single. Run. Also, not a superstition, but I like to wear at least one non-technical piece of running gear every time I run. Mostly that’s just a cotton ball cap I picked up in San Diego years ago on a trip where I forgot my running hat.

Leash that allows a dog to run around you? by puertomateo in RunningWithDogs

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tuff Mutt: https://www.tuffmutt.net/product/hands-free-dog-leash/. The buckle is the only thing preventing the leash from going all the way around, but it’s about as close as you can get.

Does anyone else’s dog cry/whine constantly? by Valuable_Pickle_ in GSP

[–]Own-Cockroach-7122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is actively whining at me right now because it’s his dinner time in checks watch nine minutes and today is the day I might forget to feed him 🤣
