Distance : 4 miles - Hills (plus 4 miles to and from work)
Total Training Distance (since beginning Jan 12) : 19 miles
Route & Stats : Crown Point Hill
Nice run to and from work followed by my first hill session. Wasn't especially looking forward to it but strangely enough I actually enjoyed it. I did 6 reps of running up from the Crown Point to the top of the hill as hard as I could and then jogging down slowly to recover. It's about 1/3 of a mile to the top so that basically means that I ran 2 miles up hill at a reasonably decent pace of 8:15 per mile. Look at this for perfect symmetry.
In other news Virgin Money (my employer) has just announced a shirt sponsorship deal with Newcastle United. NUFC are wearing the new shirts tonight and at time or writing this post they are 2-0 up against Man Utd - who says we don't have the golden touch!
