I slept only 5 1/2 hours last night. Got to bed late & woke up around the same time as usual (not to an alarm ... I just wake up whenever). I wasn't very optimistic for this run when I started it. I just didn't feel like I had any oompf. The hill repeats were tough on my legs. They were screaming at me. My cardio conditioning seems to be improving, though. Oddly enough, I felt pretty good the whole way back home.
