Running again
Inspired by all these posts I zipped out for a run yesterday in the short time window I had between conference calls.
There is a good (8%+) grade not far away that is around 1/4 mile in length...ran over to its base as a warmup, did 5x repeats (walking back down) and jogged back once over.
While not as full-body-exhausting as a 3+ hour hammer ride or a solo-century ride it was quite time efficient (less than 40 min end-to-end). Furthermore, I saw much higher HRs achieved (albeit, over a much shorter time period) than most rides.
It's not something I'd do every day, but if time pressed (and your body allows it), running is a good way to mix it up.
