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

Beautiful day in Little Rock...probably should have been outside, but I was pressed for time with a busy afternoon schedule.

5 Miles on a great evening in downtown Little Rock.

Little Rock Central High School is even more impressive and beautiful at night.  And the glow of the exterior lights on the stone facade...living history...gives me chills.

21 Miles with Dave on a beautiful day along the Arkansas River.

Our run took us west on the River Trail through Burns Park and over the Big Dam Bridge to Little Rock, where we continued west for two miles before turning around at the Two Rivers Bridge parking lot.

Because of 20-25 gusts of wind in our face, we averaged 8:12/mile for the first 10 Miles; after turning around, with the wind gods at our back, we ran in the 7:30 - 7:50 pace range.  We tacked on an additional mile through downtown North Little Rock and back over the Junction Bridge into the River Market for no other reason than because we were feeling good and enjoying ourselves.  Including the half-mile trot to and from my aprtment, I decided to take credit for 22 Miles today.

Dave's ready to smash his PR and qualify for Boston at the St. Jude's Memphis Marathon the first weekend of December.  And he still has 6 weeks to fine tune his fitness and race strategy!

6 Miles on the South Trail of the Arkansas River Trail on an absolutely perfect afternoon in Little Rock; parked at Buffalo Grill and ran an out-and-back loop with Diana by my side on a bike.  it was nice...and we topped it off with a Goose Island Ale on the Buffalo Grill patio.

Good afternoon.
