For many of us, how we would like to run downhill with our dog versus the reality could not be further apart.
In our minds we are running like a gazelle, light on our feet and looking effortless whilst keeping pace with our dog. In reality we are either hanging on to the line for dear life, trying desperately to reign our dog in or flailing our arms about as we hurtle at what feels like 100 mph to the bottom of the hill…all the while hoping we don’t face plant!
What’s worse, we all know a super confident, cool as a cumber runner who just has everything under control. Not fair!!
So are you a Windmiller, Screamer, Hang-on-for-dear-lifer? Or do you go to the extent of avoiding steep hills altogether?
Well, fear not, soon that will be in the distant past.
