I decided to do some hills today as I have not done any since being insured last year, I ran up to the mailboxes via Mount Loafer school and then I ran down Woodland Hills Drive to canal road and then back to the house. Once getting home I extended out about a half a mile and then back to the house. My average pace was 8:25 total time was 55:54, pretty darn good considering the first 3 miles are pretty much uphill and steep, I had a full mile on one of the downhills and that mile was 7:22, I wasn't really pushing it on that downhill section I just let the hill do the work. I felt really good on the uphill not to tired at all so that was a pleasant surprise, It was a great run and I feel like I am on the right track. I finished with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups.
See ya tomorrow.
