Met the BBK's for our Parkway Palisades run. It was great to be back together with everyone and always great to run the hills. I had decided that my objective this week is to focus on mileage and getting my mileage back to where it needs to be after the last month of craziness. SO, with that decided I knew that today I could not push hard and just focus on the work out at a more comfortable pace. I tried to pick it up a little on the 2mile hilly tempo but it was not happening at all. It was however a very good progressive run. We got talking about were we were 1 yr ago and that we were on the same schedule this year with a 20 mile run the week before Hobble Creek. It got me thinking that the first time I ran the Parkway Palisades hill was the week of Hobble Creek and I thought I was going to DIE! Nice to know that today was at a comfortable pace and still faster than I was a year ago.
Ave Pace 8:55 Happy Running!
