...Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder...

Miranda Kerr swears by Yoga! For Jessica Alba; it’s 3 litres of water a day… But my beauty secret; is my dogs!

Just one look at my huskies’ eager brown eyes is enough motivation for me to lace up those joggers, fill up the water bottle and head to the park for a jog. Even with a gruelling work day stretched out before me… and rain clouds swooping in around the city, I drag myself out of bed and hit the pavement for a solid 5k’s.

As childish as it may sound… looking down at their confident, easy strides; pushes me into jogging harder, faster and longer that I enjoy. I’ve always been a competitive person and just once I would like for my dogs to slow down before I do!

As it is, when we pull ourselves up the driveway, home sweet home… my legs feel like jelly and I collapse into the shower. But those furry balls of drool and energy run into the backyard for a few victory laps.

What would I do without them keeping me fit?!
