AHR/MHR - 158/177
Paved roads.
Extremely hilly.
Mid 60s, muggy.
Set out from my house on a variation of a run that I normally do that sacrificed 4/10 of a mile for more hills. Gradually picked up the speed on the first hill, where I saw a deer (a recurring theme in my runs lately) as well as a hawk. Route then goes down then up, followed by a steep downhill where I picked up the speed again.
Mile splits:
1 - 7:50
2 - 7:30
3 - 7:19
4 - 7:12
5 - 7:04
6 - 6:58
7 - 7:09
8 - 7:08
9 - 6:45
9.7 - 6:22/mile
Good run. Felt very strong throughout. Great to get in these tempo runs on hills for the Vermont 100. Just two weeks away! Can't wait.
