September 2013 - The Fear Mounts

[marathondan]

Those hills you and Sweder demolished recently looked pretty good.

You ain't joshin', Dan. They are ball-busting climbs, especially the road home from the park. I suggested leaving a push-bike up the top and whizzing back down for a double-hillage P2P training special. Of course I'm safely headed home now *evil grin*

Don't shoot me, but can you not simply jack one end of the tready up (on planks of wood or thick running books) to create an incline? I'll get me coat ...

Yes that should work with the tready?

I like the idea of the pushbike... now wondering if it's possible to do perpetual hill reps with a training buddy? Buddy cycles up, leaves bike, runs down, you run up, cycle down, repeat. Relies on buddy cycling up / running down is faster than you running up / cycling down. So actually it might not work. Puts one in mind of MC Escher.
