Roadblocks

Ok, I'm, hitting a mental roadblock in this running thing.
I'm on strike (literally) at work at the moment, so that threw my pace off a bit. I normally run home from work. So now I'm running to my strike.

And there is a killer, killer hill that I need to get over to get there. Yesterday the outline said, "Run 40 minutes, walk 1 minute, run 20 minutes." Yeah, right. The outline didn't see that hill!

I almost made it up without walking. I tried to be tough. But when your running speed slows to below walking speed...well, it's a little discouraging.

I figure that this hill is mine to conquer. Once I'm back to work (soon, please!), I will make this my weekend run. If I can get up this danged hill, a marathon should be a piece of cake. Right?
