Two weeks ago I did 7 hills and thought it was a lot. Last week it was crazy-freezing outside so we did only 4.
Tonight we did NINE! Actually slightly more than that for me, because I had to run up a hill to get to the store, and then we ran uphill some more to get to the hill. But officially it was 9 repeats of the same 3-minute stretch on Nose Hill Drive.
My running buddy Tim kept me company on the hills and that made it a little easier. Tonight I felt strong and I worked hard in some places, but it didn’t kill me.
Running down from the hill to my home was bliss. Tired bliss. Tired bliss in a hurry, because I was late picking up Soccer Boy from refereeing. Not counting the times we waited for the group (when I stopped my watch), I ran for about 95 minutes.
FBF update: 13.4 km tonight gives me 59.7 km so far on my way to 105 by the end of January. Getting there…





9 hills already? You must be almost done with the hill training, and heading into speed sessions soon! Great job!

No running for me since Sunday. I’m afeared I may be injured.
