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 the Lake Sylvia to Flat-Top Wilderness to Brown's Creek Loop with Cliff and Heidi, averaging about 10:30/mile.  That was slow for me but a solid pace for Cliff.  I pushed the pace at miles 12 - 14, running mile 12 in 7:11 and miles 13 and 14 at a 7:40 pace.  Cliff and Heidi ran those miles at around an 8 min/mile pace.
