The two challenges of uphill and downhill running can be the breaking point of any race to a runner. On the uphill you can expend all of your energy, and on the downhill you can injure yourself – with both factors leading to one thing – poor results during your race. Today Dr. Romanov briefly touches on the subject of uphill running with a quick demonstration as well as some sample footage from the ING Miami Marathon this past week.

Ditto to YogiLincoln…Dr. Romanov has some interesting ideas but most of his work consists of long-winded filler. I have his overpriced book, which could have been cut down to about 30% of its length. His website is helpful but only if you can wade through all the pendantic blah-blah to get to the meat and potatoes.
skip to 1:45; the rest is filler.
