Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
6 GoodGymers attended the first of TEN hill training sessions in Crouch End!
We met a Finsbury Park Track at 7pm and discussed everything from upcoming races to the hills to come.
After a nice 1 mile warm up we arrived at our designated hill for the evening, it's a short hill of around 150 metres. Camden Trainer Paul Bown explained the importance of technique when running up hill, we practised ALP before tackling the hills:
A for Arms - use them to power up the hill & don't let them go across your body
L for Legs - lift your legs higher when running hill
P for Posture - keep your back straight & your head tall
Everyone did really well, running either 7 or 8 times up the hill at a quick pace going up and a slow recovery going down. I've start to keep a record on this google sheet
Well done everyone, see you next Tuesday at Finsbury Park Track at 7pm but for long hill reps this time.
