Just yesterday, as I finished up my speed work on the treadmill, I thought to myself, "I sure miss running hills like we used to back in Berkeley." Today, however, after my sister ("Gin"ifer) told me she had signed up for B2B and wanted to know whether people actually jogged the hill or whether they walked the hill, I felt compelled to send her a photo of said hill.
When I told you that I thought "gee, I miss hills" I certainly was NOT referring to the most "hated" of all hills:

Note: Do not let this beast in any way, shape, or form intimidate you. You are stronger than the hill. You are tougher than the hill. You will kick that hill's ass (if it had an ass). You will prevail over that hill!!!
Having survived the hill, I tell you in all honesty, there is nothing like the downhill side of that bitch! That having been said and in honor of your tackling the Hayes Street Hill, I am going to try to shave at least an extra 2-3 mins. off my goal when running in solidarity.
