My Most Read Stories On Medium This Week and a C.S. Lewis Quote

Friday was the longest day of the year. It was also the kickoff for Grandma's Marathon weekend with their pre-marathon 5K event that I ran two years ago. The weather has been perfect for running and/or walking... or watching. Saturday's marathon was once again run with enthusiasm. 9000 runners this year.

The week my most-read stories on Medium were:

THOT FOR THE DAY
"Mankind is so fallen that no man can be trusted with unchecked power over his fellows. Aristotle said that some people were only fit to be slaves. I do not contradict him. But I reject slavery because I see no men fit to be masters."--C.S. Lewis
