6m Airport hill

Cold and wet june day today.

Headed out with a mind to catch the two guys going out of the changing rooms as I went in.

Failed as the routes did not match.

Stupidly forgot to start the garmin until already down in the botanic gardens.  Avoided the bottom field given the days of heavy rain we've had. Pushed up the hill with conviction today thinking the two guys 100m ahead were my buddies from work. Nope. Oh well that dragged me up the hill in under 9 mins which is a first for a long time.

Went on the wide loop and seemed to be mainly serious runners out today, all of whom smiled or waved. 

The bus at the top of the Pregny climb kindly waited to avoid squashing on the super narrow turn. Tried, and managed, to hold sub 8 min miles and reached the dizzy heights of 7:30s on the way down the hill.

Detour to the UBS cash machine to get some money to buy lunch. 

Trending faster, finally. A full 20s per mile faster today. Time for some planning and some workouts with Tenke.
