First Hill Intervals of the Year

This evening, I went down to the Granary in New Harmony for my neighbor's son's graduation party. It's fabulous place! Of course, I didn't eat all that well, but I didn't plan to eat well, in the first place, so that's that. It sure tasted good, too!

This was my first hill intervals/sprint workout of the season. I really surprised myself with the time on the first one since I was purposefully holding back a little. Obviously, I didn't hold back enough since my legs pretty much died on the last two. I cut the run short on the way back. Legs too fatigued. They'll get stronger quickly, though. In a twisted sort of way, I like hill sprints. At least, I like them after the fact. Not so much when I'm doing them. :-)

Morning Stats

weight: 149.0 , post run 147.6
bf: 30%
pulse: 48
bp: 113/68
bg: 96 [higher than I'd like to see after 12 hrs of no food ... maybe it's because supper was at 8:30-ish and consisted of a cupcake with a ton of icing and maybe 1/4 oz of nuts and a small glass of punch at a graduation reception]
