So as it slowly starts to warm up... I plan on running with Harley once it gets warmer. Currently I'm training for a 5-10k race (haven't decided which yet). I'm familiar with the pace at which I need to train myself, but I have no idea how to condition Harley... How much is the max he can run? How fast do I add distance, how frequent can he go out?

Should I wait until it's warm enough for him to not have to wear a coat? I worry if we go running with a sweater on him, he may get too hot. Is a block too much for a starting distance? I was thinking I could take him around the block as a warm up for me, then drop him off and do my real run.

Thoughts? going to also ask the coach tonight about it as well. I know our first few runs are going to be awkward cause I'm going to have to make sure not to step on him, and get him used to keeping constant distance with me. He runs well in agility class with me, but that's off leash, so not sure how the on-leash running will go.
