For Wilma and Inky a reminder the hill at start of 10k race
Wowee, remind me not to register for this run - EVER. Love it, thanks for sharing Burstcouch thats just something else for sure!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG you are kidding!!!
Haha perhaps I had forgotten I didn't think it was too bad. There are much worse hills in Glasgow. Once you're over that hill you're nearly at 1km. I thought it was good because it was at the start, got you warmed up properly and legs weren't tired. But also because it's at the start everyone's bunched up. I was worried I was going to feel slightly claustrophobic as I do when shopping on hills like this but I didn't. I think perhaps they route it like they do for the impressive photos!
Thanks for posting this!
Hahaha! Oh my!
Thanks for posting. I don't remember it being that steep! I think the camera has foreshortened the view.
The good thing was it was the only real hill on the course, there were a few inclines leading to bridges but nothing else and we must have lost the height fairly gradually as I don't remember any rel down hill bit.
I'd normally have some stats from Endomondo but I didn't set it going properly at the start.
No way - that's one hell of a hill!
Holey Moley; that's some hill. Crampons, methinks!!
And what happens when they all reach the top? A lemming-plunge into the sea?
Old Ned, it was downhill and then fairly flat after that.
Oh My! I don`t think it was as steep as it looks in that pic.
I managed to run it, so it couldn`t possibly be
So this is what you call a 'Hill'! I have once ('once'!) done a 'junior hill when I did my 10K on a Saturday, maybe about 1/3 of this and I was going VERY slow but came down VERY fast! What happens once you reach the top...I wonder!!
