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 9.5 miles from Powerline to Bahama Mamma and down to FSR 2 at a pace just under 13:00/mile.  Most of the run was single track trail. Ran with Loren K. who I'm pacing next week for the last 32 miles of the Traveller 100.  Loren had never run that part of the course, and I was able so show him about about 50 miles of the course by driving around on FSRs.  I think Loren is ready for a good run.
