Thursday's are Harry Davis hill days, as of the New Year anyway. Started out with the first mile split at 8:16, at the end of mile two I had droped to a 8:37 for that split which is at the base of said hill. Now, this is where the fun starts the hill is at a 8% grade and by the time you get to the top it is like a 10% grade. From the base to the top its about a mile which takes me to my third mile split which was 10:09, as you can see it is one steep mother. Once at the top I take a 1 minute walk break and start my way back down. My 4th mile split was at 7:53 as it was all down hill, mile 5 was done in 8:20 which is pretty flat and I was trying to get my legs to recover they were a little tired. Once I hit my last mile I felt a burst of energy and that split was done in 8:15, total time was 51:56 I am still trying to get over my cough and a few of my nagging injury's, but they felt pretty good today. |
