Day 174 - 4 km run - so much hillage


Max suggested a run down Mt Eden, down Mt Albert and back up Buckley - which is mostly flat apart from that small steep rise at the end.

EXCEPT it was 90% uphill on Buckley and I ran less than half of it. I ran all the way to Buckley, then realised how far uphill it was. I had taken a couple of walks and rests already as it was very hot out and hard work running but doing ok until Buckley. Selwyn was worse (but I knew that at least) and finally got near the top and ran all the way from Coronation Road to home.

All in all probably ran 70% of this route, can't see me trying it again as the hill is just a killer.

Distance: 4.0 km
Time: 29.40
Average Speed: 8.1 kph
Soundtrack: Better Than Ezra and then Faves Mix ending on Pearl's Girl by Underworld.
