kevin took the girls up to grandma billie's and i planned to run up there and meet them. i was supposed to do an easy 3-miler. "easy" to me means flat and a relatively comfortable pace. as many times as i have driven up to grandma billie's, you would think that i would remember the gigantic hills on all sides getting up there. somehow, though, they all seemed less daunting in the car than they did on foot. my "easy" run became one of the most difficult hills i've ever run up! i'm talking a san fransisco-style hill. i never stopped to walk, but i'm pretty sure that i would have actually moved faster if i had. i had just enough bounce in my step to technically call it a run. and that hill is not short. my legs were like noodles when i finally got to the house.
as hard as it was, and even though i didn't intentionally have a hard workout, i know that i'll benefit from it. i can use all the strength in my legs that i can get right now.
