25. The quarter century – hills!

The quarter century sounds so impressive doesn’t it.

I guess part of that is that it mentions the century which sends the message that this is part of heading towards that.

And as such it’s not really that impressive if you compare to seasoned runners.

But I’m not a seasoned runner, I’m really a beginner, so it’s something I’m choosing to be proud of.

Especially as I’m certainly running down the century as I head towards the marathon.

And today was about hills. I’ve heard good things about them so why not.

Strava says:

Hills!!! 8k worth with 2 x Red Hill Rd climbs

I hate and love hills. They’re a shortcut to stronger but you have to be ok with pain. Proud of pace and getting it done.

PRIVATE NOTES

Soreness in right side of right knee on one descent. Was a bit scary but settled so hopeful all ok. Proud of doing hills.

I note how the slowness up hill hits me. It doesn’t feel good.

Let’s keep going #whileistillcan
