I really did that? #onlyonehill
Yes. Yes I did! I did it. I ran Mt. Washington. This girl. Who hates hills. Who is afraid of heights. Who has never ever been to Mt. Washington before. Not Mt. Washington, but a gorgeous view on the way. I became intrigued by this race a couple of years ago and have been obsessing about it since then. Last year I put my name in the lottery and wasn't selected. This year the husband and I both put our names in and we were both selected! seriously so pretty!!! I had done quite a bit of reading about how to train for a race up a mountain and the best sources I found said running on a treadmill at an incline. Ummm... okay. I can definitely do that! pretty...but OH Crap! I have to run that? I did a few training runs on the treadmill, starting out at a 10% incline and running for as long as I could physically and mentally handle, then would power-walk/run for the remaind...
