I was up at 4am to get ready for my long run to try to beat the heat. It was already hot and muggy. It was a tough run. <br /><br />It's all relative though. I live in a rather hilly area so I do ok with hills. On my recent visit to Maine I couldn't wait to go for a run and enjoy new scenery. However, every which way I turned I was faced with monstrous hills. The ups and downs never gave way to a straight away. It was torture! <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-67350565032344236302013-07-12T12:27:02.457-05:002013-07-12T12:27:02.457-05:00Yep, except I call it Mount Flagpole.

Westshore is the toughest of that loop for me, but most my friends hate Loving more.

I always feel like I should understate the Dallas hills because we really don't have it that bad here, but heck, running speed bumps in 90+ degrees is freaking hard!<br /><br />Which hills do you run? In the DRC, Flag Pole Hill is our primary hill repeat spot, but I know there are a bunch of killer "speed bumps" around town. We have a house in our house hunt on Loving and all I can think about that house (without having seen it in person) is, boy, I sure would get my hill workout in... all from the one time I ran up that street several months ago. Loving has haunted me ever since!Kim Dresdnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03098815348905124066noreply@blogger.com
