Attacked by a Dog

Today it was fore-casted to be blizzard-like. Syracuse, laughs at snow. We got a mere 5 inches and the sun melted much of it to slush before my 10am run. As I was on my way back, I ran up into a neighborhood with a cul-de-sac. A lot of times cul-de-sacs are not cleared as well as the rest of the road and you have to take extra precaution when running around them. What I first thought was my right leg slipping on the slush turned out to be a dog attacking me. I was so scared at first, but the owner came out and apologized. But it was just so scary for a good ten seconds, because when you are shaken out of your running mode, it is alarming. Since it was so slushy, I still haven't switched shoes yet. I have to do that tonight for tomorrow. Happy Groundhog's Day :)
