My first hill workout in over 2 months--very exciting! My weekday morning runs usually include several hills, but the special hill workout challenges me a bit more. Its only downside is that I have to do it on a treadmill.
The idea is to run in 10 minute sets such that the incline is never 0. After a 5 minute warm up run, I run for 2 minutes at the incline level of 2, then 2 minutes at level 4, and so on, such that I run the last 2 minutes of the set at the incline level of 10. Today I ran 4 sets, but hopefully in a couple of weeks I can work it up to 6 sets. Going back to level 2 after running on the incline level 10 feels simply amazing. I definitely recommend it!
