Comments: Slow, relaxing run today. I felt comfortable at the finish, no exhaustion. Saw three deer feeding in a field just past mile 18. Saw two wild turkeys near mile 18.5. There seems to have been a Race to Stop Stroke today around mile 18. Not sure what that was all about, but they cheered and congratulated a few people as they finished. :) Saw two butterflies having butterfly-sex. Racey stuff when you're on a two-hour run. Saw a rider on horseback, a pale yellow horse. Looked like fun. Lots of people on the road. One girl smiled as she greeted me. :) The river remains very high today, perhaps higher than the last time I ran on Wednesday. All plant life is green and lush, the trees are full of songbirds.
