running with dog instead of intervals in the morning

[thriller]

k i have a really fast boxer and i have to walk her. so in the morning if i just play with her in a field (her chasing me making me run as fast as possible for short bursts) i will chase her a bit but its not good for training the dog. be sides the point. doing this i have to switch directions (agility for basketball) you guys think this is ok instead of straight up intervals? something like
100m x 8.

I think its a good idea for cardio fo you. Cardio is boring and thats why many quit doing it. Running with a dog makes it interesing and you and your dog will both enjoy it and benefit.

When you reach the point that you can retrieve the stick faster than your dog, than you know you must be in good shape
