Tough, hilly session today!

Today was a tough, tough, hilly session! It consisted of a club handicap race which was 4 miles over a very hilly course.

Doesn't sound too bad, does it? If it was "just" the handicap, that would have been hard enough, but I decided to run the 4 mile course as a warm up, then raced the handicap race, then did the same 4 miles course as a cool down.

So the session turned into 4 hilly miles at a steady pace, 4 hilly miles at race pace, then 4 hilly miles at an easy pace.

Make no mistake, this course was very hilly, with a monster hill at 3.5 miles, so just as you think you're coming to the end of the run/race, this monster hill kicks up and destroys you!

Train smart all!
