  1. Motivated by the observation of the storage of excess elastic free energy -- prestress in cross linked semiflexible filament networks, we consider the problem of the conformational statistics of a single semiflexible polymer in a quenched random potential. The random potential, which represents the effect of cross linking to other filaments is assumed to have a finite correlation length and mean strength. We examine the statistical distribution of curvature in the limit that the filaments are much shorter than their thermal persistence length. We compare our theoretical predictions to finite element Brownian dynamics simulations. Lastly we comment on the validity of replica field techniques in addressing these questions.
