Lars Rubs Shoulders With World’s Fastest Sprinters
Not long ago, I went to Florida as part of a “warm-weather” training camp.
Of course LarsBar came along with me, and thus is the main reason for this post.
“So, back from Florida, tanned, tired and tested for sure.
The trip was amazing and although we trained 9 of the 10 days we were there, we did find time to do a fair bit of tourist type stuff.
Lars, as Lars always is, was a great little addition to our squad.
His work was top notch as always, and his playful nature was a real treat to have as part of our group.
He must’ve been quite surprised, getting off the plane in Florida to plus 25 degrees, as back here before we left, it was raining and a cold 2 degrees.
During the day, it was often near, or over 30 degrees, weather that I do not really like working him in do to the heat, obviously.
We actually did the majority of our training in the early morning when it was not as hot, meaning that I could take the Lars Bar to the track with us.
After our workouts, I’d let him go and he’d go crazy running crazy laps, saying hi to people and just being a silly little punk!
Heck he even said hi to Tyson Gay, and veronika Campbell, 2 of the world’s fastest sprinters.
During our gym time, Lars also came along, a first for him, as I have not taken him in to an actual weight room before.
Despite all the stressful situations he was put in, Lars performed admirably, another sign that he is truly dedicated to his job of getting me from point A to point B safely.
We came home yesterday, getting up at 4:00 AM, and getting in to Ottawa at 2:00 PM.
I, obviously did not bring Luther on the trip, so I was obviously chomping at the bit to get my boy back.
He’s doing great, and is right now crashed on my couch, as he is for most of my “working” day.
Even after the long day yesterday, Lars still had an abundance of energy.
We took the boys to a dog park for a good run and Lars took full advantage of the opportunity to burn off some steam.
He is now crashed at my feet, snoring away, heck it is only 8:30 AM!”
