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 11.2 miles on the Boy Scout Trail at Burns Park with Steve and Loren.  Averaged 13:10/minute on fairly technical trails.  It was a cool morning and great way to start the week.

Walked Emmie for 1.4 mile, with about 1/4 mile of running, around the neighborhood at night.  It was too hot for Emmie to run much.  I need to run with her on Friday morning.

Evening:  Ran and walked for 1-mile around the neighborhood with Emmie.
