Head for the Hills

If you're looking to boost your strength, endurance, and speed, consider adding hill workouts to your training mix, writes Runners World's Amby Burfoot.

Warning: "Running up hills is not recommended for beginners because it puts too much stress on muscles and connective tissues that may not be ready to handle the load. It may also put extra stress on the knees and Achilles tendons."
