Ep 37. How To Handle Hills

This episode of The Checkpoint is sponsored by Adidas Terrex.

In this episode, the first in our new ‘How To’ series, run coaches Sabrina and Rachel are talking about hills!

They address questions from the community including:

- How do you train for a hilly trail race when you live on the flat?

- What is a ‘technical’ trail?

- Do you have to use poles?

- How do you improve your downhill running technique?

- What can you do to avoid injury on the up and downhills?

It was a fun and (hopefully) informative conversation. We’d love to hear what you think about this episode, so please drop us a comment and also let us know what other topics you’d like us to cover in future ‘How To’ eps!
