Only 5.5 total miles today, two of which were hill running. I had very limited time today, so I decided to make the workout short and hard. I ran to the base of Chataqua park (a park near my dorm), and found a very good hill to do some hill repeats. The hill was approximately 300 meters long, and although I am not quite sure what the exact grade was, it was quite steep. I ran 10X300, pushing it as hard as I could. After five, I wanted to die. After ten, the pain was unbearable. My legs were "quivering" and I was in severe oxygen debt. In all, though, this workout seemed to be very efficient. |
