It's All Down Hill From Here
Starting Downhill

Today's Milage: 5.1
Let's start by wishing all those pedaling today a safe and happy bike to work day.
When I leave my house, I have no idea where I am going. I choose a route that I have never done and go for it. Right now, I am focused on how long I run, not how far I go. I have to train my body to just keep moving.
This morning I chose a run that started downhill. This can only mean one of two things:
A. I have to face this hill on my way back
B. I have to go out of my way to avoid the hill again
I chose the latter and made a HUGE loop hoping for some downhill on the way back. It paid off. I had a pleasant downhill stride the last mile.
My preference is to tackle my hills in the beginning than the end, but I don't get to choose race day. Can't wait for my first real hill workout ugh!
