Hills

Bruce's dad was in the area and volunteered to come over and watch my two younger kids so I could go for a run. Wasn't that a splendid thing to do?! Back before I got pregnant this last time, I found my own hilly killer to run right here in my neighborhood. Challenge Of The Bluffs is one big horrible nasty set of hills, really truly completely awful while it lasts, and the rest of that route is pretty flat. This course has some ugly hills, not as bad as the Challenge hills, but they never stop from the beginning of the run till the end. It's just one hill right after another. I hadn't tried that old route since before I got pregnant. I decided to give it a go today. I did 6 hilly miles average speed 6.0 mph.

Woo hoo! After I get down 3 miles of running, I'm going after some hills.
(because I want to be just like Renae, because she's so perfect and wonderful, who wouldn't want to be like Renae? And gorgeous, did I mentioned gorgeous, and blonde and tall?)
