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

6 Miles at 6:58 in route to Grandpapa and Grandmama's House (my parents) for Christmas number two with the family in Hot Springs, Arkansas; ran into a strong headwind and some strange looking white stuff (just a dusting) in the air.  

Merry Christmas!

Meant to send you a "Merry Christmas" yesterday Wesley.

Looks like your training is going well.

Thanks, Rob. I hope you and yours enjoyed a long holiday weekend as well.

Training is going pretty well, but I think I am going to have to go on the shelf for a couple of days...

My right knee has been pretty sore for a week or so, and while it is not in my nature to complain or dwell on something like this, it became apparent during the latter part of yesterday's long run that I need to get this right as I move into 2011. I've been icing it for a couple of days, but it is still nagging me, and it was worse yesterday.
