No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
Heb 12:11

Hold down the reset/lap button and the mode button together to get your 205/305/310xt to restart if it won't turn on or if it freezes up.

Another easy run after 3 days off. There appears to be a trend developing here. I ran into Preston and chatted for a few minutes during the last split.

I ran into Preston again this morning and talked about Boston for a few minutes. I think I convinced him that he should go again next year. I just submitted my registration. Confirmation #2007313

5:00am - I ran with Preston so, no MP3 Bible today.

I stopped for a drink at Preston's house after 12 miles and then took the long way home with a little side trip up Farwest hill. The 3 miles between our houses turned into about 7 by the time I got home.
