I decided with my new name πŸ€— it was time I stepped up my hills. Today I covered a 2.5k long 100m incline as part of a 6.5k run. Really encouraged by each new hill challenge I complete. Happy running everyone

Belated congratulations - wish I’d thought of a cool name. I have 6 to hug. 😍 I also wish I was so positive about hills 😟 My gremlins recognise the slightest incline.

Hills have taken a lot of planning and willpower, tackled like c25k slowly with tiny incline building steeper and longer. 6 little hug bundles, bliss. πŸ€—

Thank you. I stay in the Scottish highlands at the moment, at the top of a hill. So the challenge to run home was really strong. I’d love to try some actual hill running as opposed to running uphill on roads and pavements. I’m packing as many hills in as I can before leaving the highlands at the end of next month. From my new home I’ll have to run 3k to get away from totally flat🀣🀣
