Today did all 12 at once - drove up to Canyon Glen Park and then did a 6 mile tempo back to the house in a litte under 31:30. This is an improvement over my usual time of 31:40. The last mile is uphill and was in 5:16. Then I turned around an ran back up to get the car, putting me at a total of twelve.

Today did the same 3 up, 3 down workout as last Saturday, but started with the downhill interval. This must have made a difference, because I was able to hit my targets. Going down I got 14:49 with pretty even pacing, and going up was 16:53 - most of that came from the kick. Felt pretty tired after this one - but was especially happy that I found the extra gear at the end for the uphill interval.

Ended up with 17 total today.
