This is the same hill loop I ran Monday ~ improved my pace by 35 seconds per mile.  I pushed enough to keep my pace under 9:00 miles, which required running the downhills pretty hard to make up for the steep inclines, which some I ran hard as well.  Avg pace was 8:45

I like this loop & constant hills - it wil be a good measuring stick for progress and prepare me well for the Newton Hils.
