The group met by the steep, short hill in Glenmoor. Peggy lead the workout. She had us do a .6 and a .9 interval, both of which included that hill. We began running right up the hill. I can tell I am weak on hills because I immediately fall behind everyone as we go up, then I'm (sometimes) able to catch up when it turns flat or downhill. I got twisted around in directions and thought we had taken a wrong turn somewhere and were at the temple hill on 40th W., so I slowed down thinking I didn't want to run that thing. Then I noticed we were right back where we were supposed to be, but by that time the group had taken off to run the .6 interval again, so I just ran up that hill a couple of times until they returned. Then I ran the .9 thing, felt hard until after the hill, then managed to run pretty well. I wasn't thrilled with how I did on this workout, it told me that I need to get stronger so I can run hills better. |
