Another hill conquered!

[Susiepaul]

In the autumn I was really struggling with stamina, but after a month of really slow running, I finally felt more confident in January.

I'm so pleased to say that this confidence has slowly increased to the point where this morning I tackled a hill I never thought I make it up. Its not that steep right, but we've all got one, where the gremlins tell you you'll never make it up that long slow grind.......

I did it, and couldn't be more pleased with myself. Well done me, yeah!!

I keep telling as many people as I can, running slow is the best way to build up that aerobic base. Think of it like a pyramid. The wider the base is the higher you can build the pyramid. So running slow actually helps to run faster and with better endurance.
