Day # 20: Hilly 6 Mile Run

I got up at 8am this morning and ran my familiar 6 mile loop, which has some pretty rough hills. It was already humid out, but equipped with my trusty Ipod Mini, I took my mind off sweating and pounded out the miles. I felt good for the first 3 miles, but the 1 mile hill from 3 to 4 took a toll on me. However, I kept up a decent pace up the hill, so when I got to mile 5 and 6, I got a second wind that carried me home in 48:55---just over an 8 minute mile pace, which I am very happy with considering the big hills where I probably ran 9:30 pace.
