Had to squeeze my run in between school and dinner. It was hot, so I ran on the treadmill. It probably would have been nice outside, because at least I would have had a breeze to cool me down. I sweat sooo much this time.

Anyway, I did a 2-mile warmup at about 8:10 pace average. Then I did the random hill worKout on the treadmill on level 5. I ran 7:30 pace for the first half and then slowed down to 8:00 pace for the last half.

I have done this worKout before on a harder level, but today it hurt more than usual. Yesterday was a medium effort day, so I made today the same. But it was a little harder effort than anticipated. Oh well. It feels great now.

So far I have two double-digit running days this weeK. That's my first time this year doing that on Monday/Tuesday.

Where does it hurt? Everywhere? Or in the calf?

Mostly in my heart and lungs. And my legs were just really tired after. But happily no calf pain for the second day in a row!
