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

Great time running the Almira 50 at Village Creek State Park in Northeast Arkansas. This was only the second year of the event, which also offers a trail marathon option, and my time of 7:38:03 established a new course record.

More importantly, I got to spend the weekend with some of my favorite humans! 

Thanks to Race Director, Michael Hirons, and all the great volunteers for putting on a wonderful event.
