Pretty Little Hill extended. I felt p[retty darn good today. Lungs could not keep up with the leg turnover which was a kind of nice change of pace. My average pace was 8:45 with a total time of 53:39, finished up with some upper and lower body weights and some pushups.

See you tomorrow.

Hills. Up to the Mailboxes via Mount Loafer School and then Woodland Hills drive down. My legs felt it on this one but I was happy with the effort. My average pace was 9:53 with a total time of 1:01:45. I took easy going uphill and easy going downhill, it was a good leg workout. But I always wonder if it is really any benefit. Thats the pessimist coming out in me.

See you tomorrow.

Legs were pretty tired the whole way but I just kept on mobbin on. My average pace was 9:37 with a total time of 1:18:13, I finished with some upper and lower body weights. another better week for me, a little more consistent but still work to do. I am hoping with more consistency then my pace will get better but we will see. Maybe I'm just this slow now to so that will be something I will have to reconcile with if thats the case.

See you Monday.
