Some of you may remember the unbelievably steep hill from my long run question in Starting Line. 9% grade, 1/4 mile long. On the way home on my long run I walk down it to save my knees Should I bother or just run it? It is s-t-e-e-p.
May not be a bad idea, safer on your knees, but safer in general.
I agree. Downhill is the worst on your knees. Smart move to walk down.
Reverse your course so you get to run UP it and get a great hill workout.
Actually I run up it at the beginning of my run.

Ahh... good thinking. I'd go for the walk back down then.

Leave a skateboard at the top on your out so when you come back you can coast right on down :thumbsup:
