Day 4,194—Halfway Through—

 

Only 11 days until the Ozark Trail 100! It has felt like it has been forever since my last 100-mile run. It hasn’t been an eternity, and I needed the time to focus on other things but simply getting to Lone Elk by the river yesterday made me feel somewhat better. 

My cat keeps asking me to go outside. I have let him out a few times now. He stays close to me and rubs up against my leg. My daughter and I painted pumpkins yesterday. It was one of memories that seems like it might lead to a tradition, or at least I hope so.
