Back to my (now) beloved hill

• Wed, Nov 25: Hills #4!

At least this time I was back at a hill I knew. And I wasn't late. :) Can I say how I kinda love this hill now? I feel like I know its curves like my own. ;)

For this practice, we ran 2/3 up the hill "easy", and then kicked it into high gear so we ran hard the rest of the way. The changeover marker was a little cone otherwise known as "Coach Luis", and the end point was another little cone going by the name of "Captain Robyn" lol. I think I did a decent job. Took it really easy on recovery, and managed to impress Coach Lisa a bit. She said we've never looked so good, in fact. I'm a bit worried that it still won't translate into better running, but I'll take it! :)

One thing I'd like to note. Can you believe, we actually volunteered to have this practice? lol We could have NOT had a GTS the day before Thanksgiving, and we RSVP'd that we wanted it! lol I dunno, it's weird how I miss my training buddies. I prefer to have them there sweating it out with me than not, while at the same time, I feel like I'm running along in my head even with people around me. Anyway, more room for the macaroni and cheese!!!
