The workout buddy and I think:
We’ll see some sights while we run; we’ll get a good workout in; we’ll eat some awesome food after.

The Pooch thinks:
We’ll run around our territory; we’ll say hi to everyone we see, unless we don’t like the way they smell; we’ll search for food and eat stuff off the ground; we’ll terrorize the neighborhood a bit, you know, suddenly lunge toward people, put our fur up; we’ll search for food…

Clearly the pooch thinks this through much more than us.
