69 days to go - Hill running

Route #7 (partial) Duration : 1 hr 8 min 51 sec Energy : 622 KCal Distance : 6.6 miles Max HR : 152 Bpm Av HR : 118 Bpm Mile pace : 10:25 sec/mile Mission statement :- 1 mile jog, then 10 x 2 mins up hill with slow jog/walk down, then 1 mile jog. This is the first time I have tried a hill training session. I chose the hill at the bottom of out field on the King's Farm Lane bridal way. The hill is only around .2 of a mile so my uphill sessions were sub 1:30 rather than 2 min. At the time it all felt rather gentle but I could feel the work in my legs by the evening. I was lucky with the weather and managed to dodge the showers for the most part, but I made the mistake of setting off without my gloves, big mistake, my hands were freezing!
