Nice early morning run. Legs felt pretty good after the 18.5 on Saturday. Later went to the gym for 30 min XT + core.

Did a hill workout with Kimi. These workouts are always tough especially if you haven't been doing hills much. Managed to get 8 repeats and felt pretty worn out by the end. Should have packed some water.

A bit warmish this morning and nobody else showed up to run when Kim and I first started out. Later we found Todd down in the river bottoms and he joined in for some miles, mostly with Kim. I was feeling zippy today so I ended up doing a lot of solo miles including 4 MP miles.
