AM: Beautiful morning in the 70s! This morning, I ran 12 Miles in 95 minutes; first 3 Miles with Dad, 7 more easy, and the final 2 Miles at MP (around 6:40/mile). PM: 10 Miles with Dave on a great evening along the Arkansas Trail. Sarting at Two Rivers Bridge, we ran west along the South Trail, crossing over the Big Dam Bridge into North Little Rock, the loopimg around Burns Park Soccer Complex before heading back. The late evening run certainly brought out the critters: 4 deer, 3 skunks, 1 angry racoon, and countless squirrels. And that's just the count for the critters ON the trail. Who knows what lies in the deep beyond? Pretty funny stuff, though, because after we nearly got sprayed by the lovely skunk couple early in the run, we jumped every time a leaf blew across our path. Dave's running great, and tonight's run turned into an easy progressive with a couple solid mid-to-late miles at sub 7:30 and an overall average around 8:00/mile. Total: 22 Miles. Wesley

| 12 Miles on treadmill in 93 minutes; all easy with the exception of Miles 9-11, which I ran at 6:58/mile, a pretty good effort. That Anderson Cooper is a funny guy...love "Keeping them honest" segment, which hammered both presidential campaigns for their recent ads portraying the respective candidates as a closet Socialist (Obama) and a heartless, cruel and greedy Capitalist (Romney). Easy to get turned off by this stuff...issues anyone??? Wesley |

AM: Missed my 5:15 pm alarm this morning (because it was 5:15 am), but I still managed 8.5 Miles on a really nice morning prior to my 8:30 am staff meeting. Ran south from my downtown apartment to Roosevelt, then East to the Veterans' Cemetery; turned back North toward Heifer International and Clinton Presidential Center and Park, and upon arrival there, crossed Clinton Bridge (old Rock Isaland Rail Bridge) into North Little Rock; rather than jumping on River Trail, I opted for Riverfront Drive west to the Arkansas Travelers stadium, where I completed my loop and turned back north, again crossing the Arkansas River, this time back into Little Rock. Good, urban run. PM: 4.5 Miles in 30 minutes. this short, progressive run included miles at 6:58, 6:49, 6:40, and 6:28; final half-mile at 5k pace. After pounding out 8:20s this morning on sore legs, this afternoon's workout felt like a half-hour wind sprint. Wesley

| 12 Miles in 1:29:24 on a very reasonable morning; probably 90 by the time I started the run around 10 am, but the humidity was down and there was a nice breeze. Wesley |

| 20 Miles in 2:29:30 (7:29) on a noon run back to my parents' house from the Chik-fil-A in downtown Hot Springs; it's as if I (1) knew exactly how many miles I needed to get 100 for the week; and (2) knew that the distance from Chik-fil-A to my parents' was right at 20 miles. You would even think I plan these things... Good run to top off a high mileage week; sunny and 85 degrees. Wesley |
