Hill work today. Hills seem to scare and hurt me every race so I need to face my fears.Drove to a area not far from my house that has a winding (nothing but hills ) road.The road is about 1 1/2 miles long and some of the hills are STEEP!!This was my first time to run this area and it was nothing but tough! I hope that the old saying (no pain, no gain) is true.

I woke up this morning and my calf muscles were a little sore from the hills yesterday.So I decieded to go to the Black Warrior 25k course and run it. I will be running it in about 2 weeks and I wanted to get a feel for it.The course starts at Brushy lake and heads up hill for 1.6 miles and then levels off. At 2.6 it turns right onto horse trails. Since my legs were already sore I started where the horse trail starts and ran the key mill loop.(10 miles) This was my first trail run and I wasnt really sure what to expect.

The temperature was 24 degrees and very windy but the trees blocked most of the wind.It had been very muddy and where the horses had walked they had left deep tracks in the mud.Last nights temp was 18 degrees so the holes were frozen hard making runing across them very tricky.All I needed was a broken ankle in the middle of nowhere all by myself.By the time I was finished the ground was starting to thaw out and was very slippery. I only fell one time but almost twisted my ankle 100 times!I was surprised that my legs held up and I had a pretty good time.I cant wait until the race.My pace was slow but I know that I can do better now that I have run the course. 10:50/pace

A beautiful day for a run! I left my house at 9:30 this morning and got in 11.13 miles and felt great. I would have got in more but I need to spend some time with the family. Lost 5lbs during the run but took salt and water during the run and oh yea...one reesee cup.Yummm! Took a ice bath afterwards and I feel awesome.Thanks bloggers for all your advice.

11.13 miles in 1:39 @ a 8:49/pace
