Hills Today

We couldn’t decide whether to start hill or speed workouts today. Though we haven’t done speed in a while, we are training for the News and Sentinel Half Marathon, which will be hills in August in West Virginia. We opted for hills.

Since the Flying Pig, we have not trained as hard as we should have. Our plan was to maintain a level of fitness and just add distance when needed. Unfortunately, life got in the way and for a couple weeks I was barely walking at all.

Today’s hills felt really good. Though we had no number of reps in mind, we ended up doing five — which is where we left off in May. I’m pretty happy we were able to do so many reps! I’m not sore at all, but I think I’ll be feeling it in the morning. I usually do after hills.

I’m excited!
