kind of a speedworkout day

so, i set out today doing a nice 2 mile warmup to the track in red hook. i was planning on doing some mile intervals, however once i got there i discovered the track was non-functional due to the snow. i decided then i would go over to prospect park and do some hill repeats instead. made the run over there. on the way, i decided to take the distance along 9th street from 3rd ave to the park at what would be the same pace i meant to do my mile repeats at. then i jogged over to the base of the hill and did 4 times up it, jogging back to the bottom every time. it took me about 1:48-1:51 each time to do it, which i have no idea what that means because i don't know exactly how long of a distance it is from bottom to top. if i had to guess i would say it's about 500m. all i know is, i was huffing for air everytime i got to the top of the hill. then i did about a 2.5 mile jog home. my legs felt really really heavy today. maybe i should have taken today off and put this one off until tomorrow, but as it stands i did it. i think i may just rest tomorrow.
