TODAY, RUN 5 1-MINUTE HILL REPEATS: We do hill repeats to build leg strength. You can use the same hill as last time; it should be about a 3% grade and take about 1 minute to run up. Warm up with a 1-mile jog. Do a total of 5 repeats: run up, walk down. Note: Be SURE to walk down the hills if you have problems with your knee, patella (kneecap), or iliotibial band (this is a sheath of tissue that runs down the outside of the hip and knee; IT band problems often manifest as pain on the outside of the knee or leg that does not respond to stretching). You can also use a treadmill and eliminate the downhill. Just walk 2 minutes between hill repeats with the treadmill on 0 grade.
