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

Pretty much right on with the workout from the other day. And with all those long runs too. Well done.

Thanks, Jason. Training is honest if you reciprocate.

Nice race Wesley. And good "speed work".

Great 5:30/mile pace! After a several consecutive very long mile weeks, and 10 miles earlier in the day. Dave
