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)

Ran 7.8 miles on the TM in around 61 minutes.  Just ran out of time during lunch.  Quads are a little sore, but overall felt and ran pretty good for having run 25.5 miles on Sat.
