Did the second workout of the year. This one went better than the last one which I did not log about because of how shitty it was (badum tiss).
We went out mass and eventually turned at West Moreland circle. Along the way we did pick ups on the hills. The first hill took forever and I was with Caleb most of the way. According to the watch I was hovering around 6 flat for the pickup which lasted around 3 mins.Waited at the top for my brother, Akshay and Caleb until we continued past Ward and down the long Mass hill. Next hill was the easiest, as Nathaniel correctly predicted. Picked it up on this one and was hovering around 5:40-5:30 I think. Breathing a decent amount at this point and legs are burnin a bit but still feel good. The third hill was the worst, the steepest, and the slowest. Did it at around 6:20 for about 3 minutes again. The last hill up to the intersection of Wisconsin and Mass was a nice surprise and was much easier than I expected. Hovered below and above 6 for pace, again for around 3 mins.

Overall felt great which was good. Of course it hurt and of course I was breathing hard on the pickups but at the end of the last one I felt like I could do two more or at least run for longer. Decently happy with progress this summer. Need to bump up mileage or time out on runs though.

Knee was meh the whole way. Not happy about hills.
