ROAD TO ROTTERDAM MARATHON #5 – Hill Training

hill trainingTuesday is our day for hill training. Running hills on a regular basis is very important. Please remember that our hill training is done in a pace of easy run. We do not sprint up the hills or speed up. We just go up and down the hills in our area. Just take it easy and let the legs do the work. As  you can see on the picture the pace is around 7min/km.

Most of the time our heart rate during hill training is between 138-150bpm, it depends on the humidity and  how warm it is. Today my heart rate was on an average of 141 bpm.

Normally we run around 75 minutes. We recently increased our total running time from 1 hour or 60 minutes to 75 minutes. As a preparation for the marathon. So it will help us and prepare us to get stronger.
