Workout day, started with the same tempo as last week first two miles were slower but the second two were quicker than Thursday so 5:58, 5:31, 5:37, 5:17.  Then 1 mile jog over to S. Temple and I St. for the Ledwith Hills of Death workout.  Pretty simple concept with three aves blocks up then one over and repeat until you get to the top of Terrace Hills Drive.  Very painful, even more so when you're running all out up hill look at your watch and see 9+/mile pace.  Then jog back home.

3.5 down and back from yoga. Not the hardest yoga class, but my legs definetly felt tired in all those squats and other lunge poses.

That's the Boston simulator, run hills when you are tired... for months and months...

FYI plan for this weekend in LR in Orem. Likely a Provo Canyon run. Probably will try to coordinate a carpool this time.
