run #59 - the incline

I can see the Incline from my office at work, and it looked like it was gonna be impossible to climb. Snow covered the entire way. I was gonna bail, but I realized that if I started using excuses to get out of this workout it would lead a domino effect and I'd never head over to Manitou, always having some lame reason to skip this hard workout. Tough going with the snow, but do-able. Hit the top of the Incline in just under 37 minutes, hit the bottom in 67 minutes, and did an extra mile back up the Barr trail for good measure.

Start time: 3:30PM
Distance: 5.0 miles
Time: 1:19:26
Pace: 15:53 per mile
Weather: cold, below 30F, and it only got worse as I gained altitude
