Treadmill Hill Intervals

You’re running along in your favorite Nikes, happy to be outside in the sunshine (finally, it’s been a long winter), with the wind at your back , cruising lightly down the street feeling like you could run miiiiiiles when you turn left, hit a hill and by the time you’ve run halfway up that beast, sucking in air and red-faced, you’re thinking maybe the stop sign up ahead is far enough already. Nothing deflates your “runner’s ego” like a surprise hill kicking your butt.

On the other side of the spectrum, how about that feeling when you pass someone on the upward shot of a hill? That’s more like it. That doesn’t rely solely on how light your feeling or whether you ate your banana this morning. You can train yourself to be hill runner. And that’s what these hill intervals are going to help you do. No more walk-running up the steep shots. Hill intervals will help you gain the strength and power it takes to charge through inclines. Engage those glues and get to steppin’!
