Lovely photos, that looks like great fun :-)

What handsome boys they are as well, I have always loved Setters of all types but particularly Irish.

Claire, do the dogs ever pull you over?? Just curious!

ARGH !!! ive been caught out (and not looking my best after about 10 miles) :eek:

They havent pulled me over yet and thanks to quick release on my belt they havent pulled me into any rivers/puddles/lakes yet !!  My neighbour was saying to me the other day that her husband always worried when he saw me out running as it looks like the dogs will pull me over, and there have been a few hair raising moments especially when they see a dog they dont like !!  Ive put on a bit of weight now but at my lightest  I was the same weight as them jointly but they do listen if I shout loud enough !!

That looks great fun! :)

So you attatch yourself to the dogs via a harness round your waist and they pull you along or rather you run with them?
Is that right?

Fantastic pics Claire - you must be so so so fit with all that running !  It does look like fun - and esp.  with two setters!!! Mad woman!

I can only imagine the close calls you have had being pulled over - but I like the idea of a quick release belt LOL :)

I have confirmed the fact that I am a computer numpty - the link takes me to a website but I can't see any canni-cross photos?
- By rachelsetters Date 08.10.08 09:41 UTC
It was on the front page?  just says something like - this weeks photos sent in by!!!!  It was a LM site yep?

Just scroll down and you should see them?
- By Harley Date 08.10.08 09:44 UTC
I can only see photos of LM's - no ClareyS in sight at all, perhaps she has continued her run and disappeared over the horizon :)

- By Harley Date 08.10.08 10:00 UTC
Have tried the above Rachel but can only get to todays newspage - but thank you for helping out :)
- By rachelsetters Date 08.10.08 10:08 UTC
oh rats - what a shame - she looks so glamorous too! :)
- By ClaireyS Date 08.10.08 10:21 UTC
glamorous ?????? lol :eek:

I think the pics were only up for one day.
- By ClaireyS Date 08.10.08 10:23 UTC
Rach, as a rule the dogs pull me so only half the running effort is required but you have to be ready for when they slow up (especially on the longer runs) and then you have to put effort in.  On that half marathon I ended up practically pulling Alf the last 4 miles !!
- By rachelsetters Date 08.10.08 10:28 UTC
So extra fit then now if you got a pull a setter along too :) :)

Makes mental note that when I ever start jogging to attach a dog to my waste - or even or 4 LOL!  Mind you my lot manage to get in a pickle and tangle me up just walking so heaven knows what would happen if I started running - poss. a You've Been Framed moment me thinks!

Well done though Claire you are doing really well - and see Fagan got a 4th in agility - SUPER GOING!!!
