"Running up that hill"

With Joe away in London and no training runs over the weekend I thought I would take the opportunity and practice some of the Leeds half marathon hills.

I am pretty race fit at the moment but not very good on hills. After 4 big hills (this being the meanest one), facing strong winds and covering 9 miles I felt pretty pleased with myself. The actual race is in just under 3 weeks and I think its going to be pretty close as to whether I get under 2 hours or not. Fingers crossed these hills are nice to me on the day!
