The workout started pretty painfully, but after those hills, something finally clicked. The call with Heimstead kept resonating in my head and i stayed focused and fought mentally as much as i did physically. I wish I was this strong/confident last Sunday. But no matter, keep looking forward and bring this momentum into nats.
2mi warm up and a 1.8 ish cool down
