The guys did repeat quarters tonight. I was happy for the most part, there were a few stragglers though.

8 hill sprints was what I mustered today. Pretty nice workout, I was really breathing. Ran 3 miles, then 5 miles worth of ups and downs on the hill. Finished up with 2 miles as the sun was setting. It was colder again today, but not as bad as yesterday. Right ham was a little tight for the first 2 sprints. It sort of felt like something was loose in there. It went away and I felt a lot better about the rest of the workout. One more increase in my long run left, then I'll start doing some speedwork and tapering. I'm not happy that I missed hill workouts due to being sick though. I wanted to be able to do at least 14 by this point. I probably could have, but it would have been too much. I still need to conserve a little for this Saturday's run, since I'm going at least 22 and hopefully a little farther.
