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

9 slow, hot recovery miles; met my parents and kids at River Market fountains for some wet fun in the sun.

20.5 Miles in 2:44:52 on a warm morning, climbing toward 90 degrees by the time I finished up around 11:15 am.

Dropped off wife's car at Sunset Window Tinting on South University near the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR); ran east along 12th St. Toward downtown, but turned south on Park so I could run by Little Rock Central High School, then back east past Governor's Mansion, ultimately weaving my way to the Little Rock National Cemetery; turned north out of cemetery on Confederate Blvd up to Roosevelt, entering Heifer International and Clinton Presidential Center and Park from south (back entrance rarely used); crossed over Clinton Bridge into North Little Rock briefly along Arkansas River Trail, but then back north into Little Rock on Broadway Bridge to Capitol Ave; turned west to State Capitol, past "Little Rock 9" sculpture and reflecting pool; continued east along Markham, then northeast up Kavanaugh, covering the toughest three-mile stretch of the Little Rock Marathon course (Miles 13 - 16), which were coincidentally my workout Miles 12.75 - 15.75; south on Van Buren across Markham and all the tailgaters getting fired up for the Razorback game later today at War Memorial Stadium; continued south on Fair Park all the way to Asher, turning west, then quickly back north, onto University; last mile past UALR campus and back to Sunset Window Tinting.

Stumbled into a third consecutive 100 Mile week.
