Running hills 24:17 [4]

Wow, this was a culture shock! Torrential downpour throughout the whole session in a highly humid climate is not what i'm used to. Some of the bitumen on the path was even being washed away. There was also a strange custom where you had to clap and cheer the others running up the hill while you were on your recovery down, although it did feel good to be cheered for only a training session!

6 intervals with roughly 3 mins recovery downhill:
1:22 mins
1:32 mins

I missed the group due to the wrong time posted on the net, so me and another guy Matt ran around the streets with some dodgey directions from the shop looking for the half mara group. We didn't find them, we missed out on intervals, but the pace was brisk.
