I decided with my new name ๐Ÿค— 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 Iโ€™d thought of a cool name. I have 6 to hug. ๐Ÿ˜ I also wish I was so positive about hills ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ 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. ๐Ÿค—

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. Iโ€™d love to try some actual hill running as opposed to running uphill on roads and pavements. Iโ€™m packing as many hills in as I can before leaving the highlands at the end of next month. From my new home Iโ€™ll have to run 3k to get away from totally flat๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
