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

| Drove out northeast of town and ran the "Bacon Strip" loop, which is an undulating 10-mile route on a wide, dirt county road. The dirt road with the tire tracks kind of looks like a strip of bacon, I guess. Anyway, it's supposedly a staple in the training regimes of Fort Collins marathoners, and if you can do it twice in a row you're ready for a marathon, or so they say. I have no need for silly things like marathons, so I just did it once. It was a great workout route, simply non-stop rolling hills, all on soft dirt. No traffic at all, I think I saw one car during the 10 miles, plus had good views of the front range, and nice prairie scenery. First half is a net uphill, plus with a slight headwind, but then the back half was that much faster as a result. You can really roll on this route, despite the hills, I'll definitely do it regularly. Ended up running 59:50 for the 10 miles, so 5:59/mile. Good workout.
