Training Run 30

This week's training session was on hill reps.  We convened at Primrose Hill on a warm and sunny evening, and proceeded to jog up Primrose Hill nine times (!) in order to practise running down it.  Running downhill is not something that I've had much training on previously so it was useful to learn about the importance of looking up, using my arms to steady myself, leaning slightly forward and running slightly on tip toes.  Primrose Hill is steep though and trying to do all of these things at the same time was challenging!  Running up the hill nine times was hard work, but by the ninth time I had got into the rhythm of it and it didn't feel quite as bad as it had done earlier.  This was a very useful session, all in all.
