Weather - 86 degrees, sunny. Decided to run the hill workout today - 100m at 5k pace to the base of the hill, 100m
hard up the hill (regular form on odd repeats, bounding on even), and
250m downhill sprint. Recovery was a 300m jog. Was able to complete 24 reps, the most I have done this year. My last hill session was 22 reps on June 23rd. I did not have a set number of reps that I planned to run, I just wanted to keep going until my form corrupted from fatigue. It appears that my body can increase its strength by an average of 2 reps from session to session. I was proud of this workout, not only because of the number or reps, but because I ran it in noon time heat with no water. Afterward 3 sets of strength exercises and 20 minute walk home. #241 z.m.- #154
