Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

On a beautiful afternoon, ran 9.1 miles on the south side of the Arkansas River at 7:59/mile.  Ran with the wind to my back at 7:43/mile for 3 mile and into the wind for 3 miles at 8:09/mile.  The wind was intermittant for the other 3 miles that I ran just slower than 8:00/mile.
