Used to when I played Rugby. We'd do them after a 3k run usually. Before starting the more Rugby based fitness work.

I like them. I try & get at least 1 session in per fortnight.

Shagged one of my calves once, be careful and warm up/down properly.

That's in amongst a couple of long runs, a couple of tempo runs & at least 1 other type of interval run the Parkrun every week.

Any alternatives to hill runs?

I've tried to build one session per week into a plan of 4 sessions:

•Long run
•Hills
•Short recovery session
•Fartlek/long reps

On Tuesday I tweaked a hamstring/muscle while hill running so I'm going to sack them off. What could I do instead? Rowing machine or cycling or something else?
