Not sure if I would categorize todays miles as easy but not sure what else to put them under. I ran just over 10 miles today with the team. James is out of town but I am still helping and running with the team. Today we ran from Timp up Rock Canyon. It is all uphill for about 4.5 miles with the grades between 8-12% on very rocky rough terrain. This was a killer both for the quads and aerobically. I wanted to stop but I made it all the way to the top without stopping which is an accomplishment in and of itself. On the way back we ran over to the cliff of insanity and did 4x hill repeats up it. It is so steep that you can literally reach out and touch the ground while running up it. This was a tough day all around but enjoyable in a way only a runner would understand. My legs will be feeling it tomorrow. |
