Progression Run - 8 miles with last 10 min. moderate (uphill, if possible)

6:31 am, 46-53° F, 72% humidity, wind 4 SW, sunny part of the time, partly cloudy the rest of the time.

I got out the door a little earlier today than I did the last few days, but I also ran a bit farther, so I still ended up finishing at a time that will make me late for work. I need to hurry and get ready for work.

I had kind of lead legs this morning, especially at the beginning of the run. Maybe it's from the cough syrup with codeine I took last night at 10:30.

This workout asked for the last 10 minutes to be uphill, if possible. I did manage to get a net uphill in the last mile. Incidentally, just to give you an idea of what the landscape is like around here, my Garmin recorded about 1000 ft each of ascent and descent on this run.

AP: 9:25. Splits: 9:54, 9:47, 9:23, 9:16, 9:32, 9:42, 9:12, 8:35.

That's some crazy elevation change. I think I might have an elevation change of 10 feet :)

Great miles!
