Water tank hills solo on a warmer but overcast and very windy day. My legs felt very heavy this morning. I still managed a not fast but respectable 17:47 time up the hills. A lone biker started up the first steep hill just ahead of me. He's part of a group of bikers we regularly see in the morning. I managed to pass him and get well ahead by the top of the hill. He must have went back down or waited for his buddies because by the time I got to hill 5 I heard them talking coming up behind me. I made it to the top of hill 5 and turned back down just before they caught me. The Fast Half Mile that is part of this run near the end was not so fast today...8:28/mi. That's slower than our average pace for the entire 6 mile run yesterday. I worked pretty hard today, it just wasn't fast. It's all good. |
