HILL REPS

I met up with Denver & Dave at the East gym. We warmed up just over two miles then did 8 by 30 second hill "sprints" with 2:00 minute jog for rest. I eased into them but the knee held up well. Dave and I averaged about 5:00 flat on them. After the run we did another 10 minutes on the Arc Trainer, abs, hip exercises, bar dips, and some upper body lifting.

70 minutes easy effort on the Arc Trainer. I decided to take a day off running to be safe as I continue to ramp up slowly. I finished up with abs, hip exercises, pushups, and lower body lifting.

This is my "heat map" of where I've run since I got my Garmin in 2012, pretty cool:

6.3 mile trail run from Dave's house in Ogden with Dave, Denver, Ken, Ben, and Jon. It felt really good to run with the guys on the trails in the rain in daylight! I haven't run on a trail since 2013 I think. I felt pretty good on the climbs, I think the cardio is coming along. Avg pace 7:39, and 910 feet vertical.

This is my first week over 20 miles of running since March, or in other words first week over 20 miles in 40 weeks!
