Tempo on hills

a long as you are going <75% of what you could at that distance on the hill then i don’t see why not. it probably would help strengthn hip flexors too. However, if you do it and find you are not recovered the next day for speed then i would say to avoid it.

I’d be concerned if the terrain was a straight hill but a hill componant withing the run should be very doable. An example woule be 250s with the final 50 up a slight grade. We did a variation of that with 10 x 250 with direction changes (because of the short break) so first rep up at the end and second down at the start, and so on.
