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)

Paced Loren for the last 32 miles of the Arkansas Traveler 100, on a beautiful but cold night.  It was Loren's first 100 mile run and he had to hike and shuffle along for most of the last 32 miles.  It was fun, and as cool as it was, I should have signed up for the whole 100 miles myself.
