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

15 Miles in 1:57:22 on a hot afternoon in Little Rock. Picked up H Street near my house over to Hillcrest, turning onto Lee, then Kavanaugh, down to Markham; headed east on Markham past Arkansas School for the Visually Impaired, then cut over to River Trail via Park, Garland, and Gill over the railroad tracks; ran 3+ Miles along River Trail toward Big Dam Bridge, then climbed up Overlook and wound my way through Camack Village and the Heights back to Evergreen, on which I turned west back home.

Tough, hilly run.

17.4 Miles in 2:36 in the Ouachita National Forest on a warm afternoon, 86 degrees, with manageable humidity.

1 Mile along Hwy. 324 from Lake Sylvia to start of Arkansas Traveler 100 course; first 16.4 Miles of AT100 course, which includes a couple thousand feet of climbing and 7.8 Miles of singletrack on the Ouachita Trail, in 2:28. Despite running conservatively and carrying only 20 oz. of water, this was only 6 mins off my 2:22 split in last year's race.

Other than a couple downed trees, the trail is in great shape. Race Directors Stan and Chrissy Ferguson and the entire AT100 committee do a bang-up job every year--and next Saturday will mark the 25th anniversary of one of the oldest and best hundred milers in the country.
