Hill Workout
AM: got to bed late last night so I headed out after sleeping in a bit. Nice and sunny with some typical Draper 15-20mph headwinds(in the wrong direction today). I decided to use this wind as another motivating factor for the hills. Draper Lefty Loop. This loop includes part of the Chevron Hill. I warmed up 4 miles and then headed into the focuses part. I did this loop last week at easy effort and today's focus was to do this run at moderate effort. After doing Saturday and Yesterday's efforts I needed to make sure this run today was another deposit and not a withdrawal.
Phase 1 hills - mile 1 rolling/incline 7:12(ME), mile 2 incline 7:04(ME), mile 3 bigger incline lower Chevron Hill 6:59(ME), mile 4 middle part Chevron Hill and rolling Trail 7:36(ME)
1 minute passive rest
Phase 2 hills - mile 1 rolling big incline that simulates Heartbreak Hill .75 miles into mor roll the last .25 mile 7:07(ME), mile 2 first .5 rolling hills into a decline the last .4 back to flat 6:05 (HMP) opened up here a bit to get some turnover and make sure the legs felt good.
very pleased with this run. Great deposit again. Felt very good and the effort was perfect. Excited to do this run again next week. 7:09AP
