So yesterday didn't go quite like I had planned! My goal was to get up around 8 am and head straight out for my hill workout. Once complete, head back home, hit the weights and then head back to bed for a couple more hours of sleep. Well what really happened.....................I woke up at 10 am, and after fighting my own body, I headed out the door, climbed into my truck and drove to Keene for a hill workout. I parked at Wheelock and planned to run to Drummer Hill and knock out 4 hills. Headed out at a nice jog, felt like crap and when I got to Drummer Hill, I felt like the workout just wasn't going to happen. I battled through though and ran 4 hills:

1-1:30
2-1:37
3-1:40
4-1:37

Not truly impressed with my times, I felt I had really worked hard for the times I got. But I have to remember that this was the first time in a year I've hit Drummer! The interesting thing is that after the third and fourth Drummer, I felt pretty strong and decided I would up the workout with 4 S-Curves on the bike path. So I head down and ran 4 more short hills:

1-:21
2-:21
3-:20
4-:19

Now those felt good, I figured I could do many more, but knew I still had to hit the weights so I headed back to the car and headed home. Once I got home I hammered a damn good leg workout on the weights, I felt spent but strong. The downfall...............no nap for me and now that I'm at work my legs are tired!! Easy run today, run the fatigue out!!!!
