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 8.2 miles on the TM in 67:05 (8:11/mile). Felt very stiff for the first mile, running it in 8:30. But then ran most of the other 7.2 mile at an 8:06/mile pace.

Ran 2.5 miles on the TM in 19:30 (7:48/mile). The ran with Wesley from downtown Little Rock to the Big Dam Bridge on the south side of the Aransas River, then back downtown on the north side of the Arkansas River with a little additional half-mile through Burns Park. Distance running around Little Rock on a beautiful day (sunny day with temps in the low 70s) was 14.5 miles. Total miles of running on the TM and outdoors were 16.75 (7:47/mile pace) but we walk about 0.25 miles because I ran out of energy. I needed an extra gel that I thought I had packed but didn't. Fortunately Wesley was a great sport and very patient about the walking. I think I ran out of gas because I ran 18+ miles on Wed and have logged a substantial number of miles in the past two months.

Wesley is recovering very well from the Arkansas Traveller 100.
