Monell's

I managed to do a few 5 on, 5 off thru 20 during the day but it wasn't much. Unfortunately. I wanted to have time to do all of the 5 on, 5 off thru 60, but we ended up going to Monell's for lunch during work and I couldn't get much else done later. After work, t was off to run outside—you know it's nice when you can run outside in a sports bra! Today was hill repeats again, with two additional compared to last week's run. I tried to get a woman who was already on the path to run with me but she said no. Probably a good thing because one of us might have been hit by the car that was foolishly and illegally driving on a ride/run path.

Pace last time, 38:33 for 4.5 miles, 8:34 pace, and 135 HR (182 max). 8:24 out, 8:13 back in (372 longest uphill).

I always had someone in front of me on the trip back in, and this helped me keep a slightly higher pace than the last couple weeks. I just kept wanting to catch those people! My HR was definitely high throughout the entire run and I was feeling it. Then it was off to Farkases' house for dinner and quality time with the grandparents who are here for Easter.
