Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

AM - 8 miles, 7:30/mile average. Feel okay after the race. It was definitely a hard effort on the legs, but I think recovery will go well.
PM - 5 miles, canal trail. Felt better than I did this morning. Averaged 7:30/mile.

| Finally got in a workout this week. It's been a crazy week, as I spent the last half balancing a conference for work, plus work itself, sneaking in running where I could. And the weather did not make things easier either. This morning was a bit busy too, as I had a men's breakfast at 8AM, and I wanted to get my run done and be showered before then, so that I would have to deal with it later in the day. I got up at 5:30AM, ate some fruit, and then warmed up 2 miles on the treadmill. Then, a little bit after 6AM, I started my real run, as it was starting to get light out. Warmed up on the roads for two more miles, 6:21 and 6:32. Then did 5x1-mile at LT pace with 2:00 recovery jog. Splits were 5:34, 5:15, 5:22, 5:11, 5:14. The first one was way slow because it was still dark and I could gauge pace, plus my body was still feeling grumpy about workout out this early. The third one was a little bit slower because it was mostly uphill. The set as a whole was just okay. Not terrible, but not great either. I think I am still recovering a bit from the race last Saturday, and from a more stressful than usual work week. 13.5 miles total for the run.
