Pfitz says to run 12 but I'm replacing my second MLR of the week with a shorter run with significant hills.  I've done this in the past and think the extra hills really help prepare me for St. George.  Ran up to the mouth of Mueller Park canyon and back home (up 950 feet and down 950 feet).  It was much slower than I wanted (2 minutes slower than last week) but it was still a good effort and it felt good.

Couldn't agree with you more. I run a lot of hills now and man, what a difference! Good work Andy.

I like it when people are not slaves to the training program, but instead tweek it to fit their needs. Good job.
