Good video on downhill and uphill running

Lots of hilly upcoming races for my athletes, friends and myself.  Time to practice hill running.  Here is a good video on proper technique for hill running.

If done right, you can save valuable energy with good up and down hill running technique.
If you have an upcoming hilly race, remember that running downhills are almost as important as including uphills in your training.  This is especially important for a race with early downhills such as the Boston Marathon.
