After spending the greater part of my morning writing about running fuel, I was itching to lace up my new Asics — first run in pair #7!
I found inspiration for my workout today via my 2012 inspiration board… in addition to the fact that I was excited to break in my pink kicks in the clear, shorts-appropriate January weather.
I ran 4.25 miles in a little under 38 minutes, including 6 hill repeats. I used to do hill repeats all.of.the.time. during my high school XC days. Today I did 3 on a longer hill, mid-run, and 3 on a shorter hill at the very end of my route.

I finished up with this quick routine from Tone It Up, conveniently pinned to my Fitness Inspiration board. I will definitely be doing this one again.
How often do you hit the hills?
Hope you’ve had a rockin’ Running Tuesday.
Take care,
