Did my run in Duncan in reverse order today, thinking it wouldn't be as hilie this way . Gibbons rd wasn't bad once i got passed vimyhall and it was down hill to menzies rd it has a slight dip in it and a gradual hill coming out off the dip which goes on for a while, then coming to old lake cowichan rd it was easy going till I got on cowichan valley hwy getting here I went over Tansor road .Tansor rd also has a slight raise which surprised me because I had expected it to be level. I should know better because the only level place that i run on is the track , but even the track seems up hill. Running along the hwy I get to Drink water rd and a bit of a climb to north rd and it is smooth sailing till I get to somenos rd then berkeys corner down hill past the hospital a slight uphill and then you coast down goverment str just when i was getting out of breath, I had one more hill to run up this one was at the start of Cliff road and would take me to the finish, I like this route because it throws a little of every thing at you, so it prepares you for a hilly race or a flat even course coming to the end I had to remind myself to relax and to not tense up , as a cool down I cut some grass with a push lawn mower at Life Style By Choice. Have Fun and Train Smart.
