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 an afternoon with temperatures in the mid to high 80's, Wesley and I ran 10 miles in approximately 7:45 per mile.  We ran the first 5 miles at a pace about 10 seconds faster than the second 5 miles.  It is good to be back in Little Rock.

On another warm afternoon, ran 14 miles at an 8:28 per mile pace in just under 2 hours. Ran from the Two Rivers Bridge along the north side of the Arkansas River past the Skateboard Park by about 1/2 mile then turned back.  Temperature was 88 - 90 degrees.   I was just trying to see if I could run 14 miles without any pain from my adductor injury.  I feel good after the run.
