I have a love/hate relationship with hills, and I've had quite the experiences with hills recently on my bike at Lancaster and Aledo. Until I started Fit for Speed a few weeks ago, I avoided hills. Today, I ran 2 miles up and down hills. Willingly. I think.
Flagpole Hill Repeats
I was close to my goal, with an average pace of 10:30 min/mile.
Training is much like rolling hills, there are peaks and there are valleys. There are times after runs and rides that I feel great- like I've dominated! Then, there are times I feel like I am crazy for attempting to climb that mountain. Figuratively speaking, as Texas is relatively flat. Then I remember why I'm here- the feeling at the top of the 'mountain', achieving goals and making memories, there is nothing like that feeling.
Make it count.
