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

19 miles on a lovely afternoon. So, I ran from my parents' front door, down the driveway, and along Hwy. 171 into Lake Catherine State Park. I hit the Falls Branch Trail for the 2ish mile loop past the falls, and then returned along 171. It was exactly 19 miles, and although I carried a gel and a waffle thing, I ended up just drinking 20oz of water.

20 Total Miles, including one-mile walk.
