Climbing a Hill

Hill climbing in West Yorkshire

Last weekend, whilst training a client outside, I was challenged to run up a steep hill banking. The banking is approximately 20 meters in length and we estimate somewhere between a 1 in 2 to 1 in 3 incline with a very slippy gravel and sand underfoot. The image does not do the elevation and steepness of the hill any justice. I was pleased to take up the challenge and pleased to report that I got to the top with a little slip along the way, which required a lot of leg and arm drive and core strength. I was determed to make it to the top, as had a I not, my client would not have let me forget about it!!

Keep up the great work

Matt
