Comments:

this was a PR for me. i felt good during most of it. i had to walk up most of the hills but there were enough downhills to help make up for the uphills. when i got to 40 mins i really tried to pile it on. i really wanted to break 50 mins. i'm so proud of myself for doing that. this is the first time i've done that. go me!

What would you do differently?:

might actually do some warm up next time.
