HPb 71 - Hill Repeats

Met early this morning for some hill repeats in Red Rock Canyon. I don't really think of RRC as being very hilly, but I may have to change my mind after today. Did a 15 minute warm-up and then ran 5 x 4 minute hill repeats on a nasty dirt road just east of the Quarry. There are a bunch of road runners who show up to these workouts who are much faster than me, but I pushed like hell and gave 'em a run for their money today. Pretty smoked after the workout, felt real good. Great weather, and as a bonus I was able to lift some weights afterwards before heading into work.

Start time - 6AM
Distance - 8.0 miles
Time - 1:10:00
Pace - 8:45 per mile
Weather - 45F
Weight - 172 lbs
