I did my long run on Saturday and rested on Sunday so I moved the hill work out to today. Today the workout was a warm up (went to the Al Foster with Jim and ran an easy 3.2 miles). Then came back home for the hills because Jim doesn't like hills. There is a big hill up to the subdivision that works well for hill work. The workout called for 70 seconds up hill then jog down 7 times. 70 seconds is a very, very long time when you are running up a hill. It is a very short time when you are jogging down.
I am a numbers person. I talk to myself when I am running alone. I tell myself I am a quarter done or halfway there, etc. Seven is an odd number for a repeat. Seven makes me do math in my head while I am running. After one hill I am 14% complete. Even number intervals are much easier to calculate.
I am six weeks into an 18 week training plan. 33% of the way there.
