Story

Hey guys Nemo here, typing with my own scruffy pawz.

On Saturday I'm gonna be running my first 5k for the Guide doggos Charity.

This kinda thing a rly big deal for me. I have never ever been on a run before well unless zoomies count I'm super good at them.

In prep I have cut down on roughly 1.63 schmackos a day which has been tough... Have also been doing zoomie interval trainings to keep up my cardio n stuff.

I chose this charity coz I really admire the work my pals do coz I could never be as chill or well behaved as them even tho I'm half Lab. I have a few golden gal pals from honey bog hill I used to play with that have gone to help humans who need them. I never see them now which is sad for me but I'm super proud of them helping people's.

I expect to get distracted by anything I see or smell or hear but hope to cross the finish line eventually. Jackie will be running with me too and have dog ears and nose to try look like me but obv won't look as cool. And my pal Harris will be waiting at the finish line, schmacko in hand (paw).

Anyways fanks for reading my inspiring story. Hope u sponsor me if u don't I expect a schmacko when I next see u to make up 4 it.

Big licks n hugz n high fives, Nemo xoxo
