NOTE

Embrace the Downhill for Quick Gains

Training for races in hilly terrains can significantly enhance performance, even when the body feels temporarily overwhelmed. Incorporating specific downhill running sessions, especially in the final weeks before a major event, effectively builds strength and speed.

Instead, a balanced approach leading up to the race can yield excellent results without excessive strain.
