Quite frankly the last thing I wanted to do were hills tonight. I was in a lightly grumpy and tired state. But I knew once I hit the trail I would be just fine. There’s nothing like dragging your butt up a super steep hill to boost your spirits (and your heart rate).
I was excited to show Tracy the trail across the street from the “parking lot.” It’s one of my favorite spots to run in Red Deer. I only wish there was a longer route. I warned Tracy we would have a hilly start from the get go. She was a real trooper! I think she loved it because we already made plans to meet again.
We finished our workout with a few hill repeats with Sandy. I admit it was much more fun with company! We took turns carrying the beast up and down the hill. Jeff agree to make us our “own” Sandy if we give him the supplies.
