15 quarters w/200'


Had the urge to just go short and hard today and used my driveway rep route to accommodate my needs this morning. So I did 2 warm up reps and saw that I was at the 2:53 range for the quarter and about 200' climb. The 3rd I went balls out just to see what I could do and saw a 2:21 and decided I pick somewhere between for the final 12 and pretty much hit the 2:35-2:40 mark for each. Was enjoying some good music on the ups/hards and downs/easy. Here's a few of my favorites of the morning and I'm sure you can guess what was playing on the the times I was blissfully burying myself and when I was peacefully recovering.

  1. Balls out? I run faster with them tucked in.

  2. Have you given both options adequate attention, GZ? There's something about the sway that creates a rhythm.

  3. Perhaps it's not a Foo Fighters rhythm which would explain the tuck and the Methos?

  4. Sweet. When I lived in Bat Cave it took me 10 mins of hard uphill running to get from the road up to my rented cabin via the dirt "driveway". Must be a western NC thing. Past 100 vertical miles now. Crazy.

  5. 10:00 is a good climb for a driveway, nice! Hadn't thought of it that way, 100 vertical miles, cool. You should bee seeing some nice steep stuff in San Fran as well.

  6. I'll be too busy catching up on real beer consumption to worry about hills.

  7. That's right, you've been in 3.2'ville for a while. You've got some catching up to do.
