I'd stop, they'd stop and wait....then when I started going again, so did they. It went on for nearly a mile. I can only imagine what it looked like to anyone who saw it. :-)Nejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00982042722943000994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363325295373323993.post-7961806479277957722011-03-31T10:57:12.072-05:002011-03-31T10:57:12.072-05:00OH my gosh... they *followed* you?!?!

That is so cool!!!<br /><br />Sorry it was a tough run though :(<br /><br />I seem to be in that boat quite frequently lately and don't know what to do about it!

Getting up to walk to the restroom, or to leave for lunch is about the extent of my during the day activity. :-) People laugh because every once and a while I just take a walk around the building. I can't stand sitting so much. :-)<br /><br />I will never forget turning around and seeing them running along behind me. I've had dogs and cats do that, but having deer do it was definitely something to remember. :-)Nejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00982042722943000994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363325295373323993.post-43065019500406692502011-03-31T08:18:20.109-05:002011-03-31T08:18:20.109-05:00@ Lori - some people probably think I'm crazy ...@ Lori - some people probably think I'm crazy for running through the pain. Heck, I thought I was crazy for doing it. (hehehehehe) I just wish I knew why some days I can go eight or nine miles without issue, and some days I can't take more than a couple of steps. Might be time to call the ol' physical therapist again.Nejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00982042722943000994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363325295373323993.post-68074558904846412582011-03-31T08:16:56.657-05:002011-03-31T08:16:56.657-05:00@ Pat - the one came right up to me.

That's my biggest problem with running in the afternoon: tired legs. <br /><br />How special that those deers were running with you, I think that's awesome!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4363325295373323993.post-39506842739265295482011-03-30T22:30:12.501-05:002011-03-30T22:30:12.501-05:00What an awesome deer story!
