I ALWAYS have a great time at Wednesday night Hill Kills! Tonight, we had a good turn out: Coach Bill, Tracy1, Natalie, Walter, Traci H., Esther, Murphy, and me. A few miles in, we did 6 short sprints to really get the blood flowing. We took on 6 hills for a total mileage of about 5.75 (all of our GPSs had a different distance). Overall, it was a great quality workout.
It was good to catch up with Coach about the race last Saturday and the passing of Jude's father. I chatted with Walter and some of the fast girls about the WBR female speed time; I'm interested to see how that pans out. Unfortunately, the pain in my right hamstring hasn't subsided yet. But it isn't debilitating either -- I can just feel it gently nagging in there, especially when I try to attack a hill. Fortunately, Murphy was right by my side the whole way keeping the pace. I gotta say that he's the best running companion -- never has any complaints. Cardio-wise, I feel the best I've felt in a long time. Maybe I'm finally kicking this cold! |
