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

Up at 3:15 am with my son, Max, and I couldn't back to sleep...so I brewed a cup of coffee, threw back some pretzels, and headed out for 12 Miles in 1:17:32 (6:28/mile), with the following three-mile splits:  

Miles 1 - 3:  19:00 (6:20 pace)

Miles 4 - 6:  38:09 (6:23 pace)

Miles 5 - 9:  57:41 (6:31 pace)

Miles 10 - 12:  1:17:32 (6:37 pace)

Perfect running conditions this morning, 53 degrees and not a cloud in the sky.  

Great sports day this Saturday.  The Hogs need to bounce back with a win over the Aggies, and my Cardinals kick off the NL Wild Card Series this afternoon up in Philly.  

Predictions:  2 W's of course!
