Yesterday I started some hill work, heading for Skyline Drive. I only did 20 miles, but with 1965 feet of climbing, and most of that was from the 7 to 10 mile mark. The first 7 miles only took 26 minutes but the next 3 took 34 minutes. Total time round trip was 1:42, right around 12 miles per hour.
My weight is finally coming down too, I dropped 4 pounds in the last 10 days. With 4 more weeks to Michigan I hope to get about 8 to 10 more off.
