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

24 Miles in 3:54:33 in the Ouachita National Forest.  Much of the run was on Forest Service Roads, but the grueling route also included several miles single track climbing on the Ouachita Trail, where I ran up on a black bear (who thankfully ran the other way), several deer, and a big turkey; what I did not see is a single human being, vehicle, or even much trace of human life.  

As to the bear, he must have been intimidated by the fierce look on my face as I pounded away 9:30 minute miles in 96 degree heat with a heat index of 100.  My mother tells me I am fortunate, and I think she said blessed as well, to have seen a bear in the wild.  Indeed, it was cool.
