Mount loafer up to the Mailboxes and then over to the top of Harrys hill and then Home, I felt pretty good on the uphill but not so good on the Downhill... I'm sure that will get better as I run more downhill. My average pace was 9:10 with a total time of 1:06:00, I finished up with some lower body weights. Good uphill and downhill training today.

See you tomorrow.

Out to the riverbottoms and back via canal road, Heart rate was a little higher today than I'd like which has to be a bi-product of Covid. Usually I am in the 140 average range. My average pace was slower to at 9:03 with a total time 1:40:40, hopefully my heart rate will come down as I go along. I am working on being 2 months since I first learned that I had covid so i hope this isn't a permanent problem. I guess we will see.

See you monday.
