Consolidation run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ no 7

Decided to take a different route today, running with my son Scott.

We went along the river which was so nice to get away from the traffic. Lots of runners πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ & dog πŸ• walkers out.

Only thing - the run down towards the river was ok, although I took it steady BUT the run to get back up the hill was so hard! πŸ˜₯😰 (49m elevation). Think I may change the route and double back so when I get to the uphill part its when I’m doing my warm down walk.! xπŸ’•

Well done.

Hills build stamina and strength.

If you want to be able to run up hills you need to run up hills.

If you are happy to run on the flat, forget the hills.
