Mr PugRunner and I both had to run Monday morning, leading to some schedule coordination. He went out first, and I got the second position. This meant I didn't get to venture out until the sun was up (6:50ish), but on the plus side, so was the Supermoon. I was lucky that it wasn't super hot and ...

the pressure’s on
