Pre-hunt + Tommy's hunt

December 3, 2013 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Pretty good day at work. Chelsea was going to PDX to see Drake, so we chatted on the phone after work and before the show. Gosh, I'm so lucky. She WANTED to talk to me (and requested that I call her after work); how awesome is that?

After that, I drove to Lewis' to get in some mileage before the hunt. Most hunts are 5-8mi, so I wanted to get in some extra so I hit at least 10. Ran downhill from his place and hit up Amazon, then when I hit :15, I went backwards. Did x10 pull-ups (miss that lunch time run pullups) on the outbound.

Got in :32 of running, then convened with the fellas. Pretty good route where Tommy took us downhill, across 30th, up to the golf course and through, then up through the "LCC land" and around, popping out on the back (NE) end of Hendricks! Solid route! From there, we took the trail up to Ribbon, and back to Spring Blvd, with a little out-route to get six miles.

I'm a bit annoyed at how "uneven" we run: we go slow on the flats, SUPZ-slow on the downs, yet seemingly run the same speed on the ups: so it's like we're HAMMERING on the uphills (and I'm going beyond VT), relatively. Before long, I surrendered and hung back. Matt kept me company and we talked about his running and goals.

Good run. The legs are trashy. I wore my race-day N2s (same as Saturday). I think they're dead, too...or close to it.

Post-hunt: some good chats, but I got out of there before 9. Trying to be more like ChelS and get to bed earlier. Was sleeping by 10ish.
