I had my best yet average pace, going the reverse of my usual direction. I didn’t feel as week and exhausted going up the hill that direction as I have the past few times. I was still pretty slow going up, but not so exhausted that I couldn’t take good advantage of the hill going back down after rounding the corner.

My playlist was decent; Anyone Else by The Real McKenzies, Vertigo by U2, and No Pockets in a Shroud by The Rumjacks were great to end on. I had to skip Lo/Hi because it felt too much like the previous song, and I needed a faster pace.
