Fri - morning in Wichita, Aunt Suzan's, around Willow Bend (?) golf course, just easy miles, the course is 36 holes, ran a few of the spokes. Then did some discing in the wind, got a couple golf balls in my hands. Beautiful sunrise, I like Wichita. 3m
Sat - Texarkana pond with Ben, supposedly 3.9 miles Greg says but I could see inlets and jettys. Greg also expected "world class" runners to run faster. That was the last we saw of him, he went back to big D for his son's b-ball game. Ran on a single track mt. bike trail where there were loops and it was made for fun, not to get around the pond, 2 miles in Ben complains his hands and feet are itching, we get to the dam, which is maybe only a third of the way around, then there's a dirt road that angles away? Asked an older couple how far it was and they expressed incredulity. We found the golf course and Ben suggested we stay in the open. On one arm we ran 1/2 mile around and went only 200 yards across the jetty. Ben wanted to stay in the open because of his allergy (ragweed?). I mentally prepared myself as we looped and finally made it to a patient Carrie, about an hour total, it just seemed longer. 7.5m
