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

4 miles that felt like 40 given a severe case of strep throat (that I brought on myself).  Knew it would be slow and ended up walking for much of it.

4-mile hike at Pinnacle Mt. State Park.  Much better than yesterday because (1) I didn't really try to run until it got dark and I had to, and (2) the antibiotics are finally starting to work (though more slowly than I had hoped).

What was intended as another hike turned into 8ish miles of really enjoyable - and at times, quiet technical - trail running. I linked up numerous sections of the network of mtb and hiking trails in Pinnacle Mt. State Park. These trails are sneaky awesome.

2+ miles walking, but let's go with 2. 50 feels like a major victory over the dark cloud that settled in this week. Tomorrow is a new week, and it's going to be a good one.
