You can tell that you are getting fitter when you repeat workouts. The hilly runs build you, and you can feel it. In this workout out, shake it up, you could try a one-minute surge, ten times in this hour run. Or you could push it, warm up well, twenty minutes, and in twenty minutes, put in five two-minute hill surges, then finish up with twenty minutes at a good pace. Shake it up, have some fun!
