AM - 8 Green Springs w/ Warm Springs (up steep hill, 1st left, then back to desert access, connect back to normal route). Best morning run I've had in some time. Awake, felt a little more fresh, ran a little quicker, temps nice with a little drizzle. The lat two easy days have help me catch back up a little I think. (Cumulus orange 487.75, about time to retire)
afternoon - 5xSunrise hills - 9.1 Well I think the needed end of this MicroCycle couldn't come any quicker. I am spent. The hills this week were crap. I was pretty spent, and I didn't push it as much as I should have. 1-1:48, felt decent on this one and started off well. 2-1:53 time slipped more than it should have. 3-1:59 that bites. 4-1:59 I really just had nothing and resigned myself to just trying to not let it slip above 2:00. 5-1:58, I thought if I really gave it everything I could bring it to 1:55 and end on a positive note. I pushed it with everything and that's all that was there. Oh well, move on. Went down Foremaster and up the Mall Trail. Didn't do my barefoot stuff though because I just wanted to be done (not a good excuse). (Cumulus blue 55)
