Personal:

Pride necessarily sprouts and grows; a pride that can only come from relentless kneading of unwilling flesh, painful months of grinding and burning away all that is heavy, all that is strength-sapping and useless to the body as a projectile. --John L. Parker, Jr., runner/author

10 Miles in just under 80 minutes on a hot mid-morning run that was based on the following: 

If there was a trail, dirt or rock path, I went down it.  

If there was a creek, I jumped in it.  

If there was a hill, I climbed it.  

Wore my Merrell Trail Gloves, which were nice, and a good change in pace with my calves feeling the brunt of the workload.

Met my family at the neighborhood swimming pool shortly after 10:00 am for some fun in the sun.  BBQ later at friends house, and yes, there will be a slip-n-slide!

i wish we could join you guys. Especially for the slip-n-slide. We're heading out to the Ford Douglas cemetery now and then some grilling in the backyard.

Nice run. Similar philosophy for me this morning. We're on the same page.
