AM: Beautiful morning in the 70s! This morning, I ran 12 Miles in 95 minutes; first 3 Miles with Dad, 7 more easy, and the final 2 Miles at MP (around 6:40/mile). PM: 10 Miles with Dave on a great evening along the Arkansas Trail. Sarting at Two Rivers Bridge, we ran west along the South Trail, crossing over the Big Dam Bridge into North Little Rock, the loopimg around Burns Park Soccer Complex before heading back. The late evening run certainly brought out the critters: 4 deer, 3 skunks, 1 angry racoon, and countless squirrels. And that's just the count for the critters ON the trail. Who knows what lies in the deep beyond? Pretty funny stuff, though, because after we nearly got sprayed by the lovely skunk couple early in the run, we jumped every time a leaf blew across our path. Dave's running great, and tonight's run turned into an easy progressive with a couple solid mid-to-late miles at sub 7:30 and an overall average around 8:00/mile. Total: 22 Miles. Wesley
