HIlls come in all shapes and sizes. For the three minute hill runs, we are looking for you to find a good strong uphill run. For the six minute hilly run, you can find a trail with some strong hills that will challenge you, or you can find a long, cruel hill that makes you gasp for air afterwards. Either way, you are building up for the fall cross country season.
