tks for reminders in this video. have done some 5k races with hills and most folk don't know how (or aren't conditioned) to handle them. have passed many a runner on the downhill's while they're applying the brakes (with their heels....) uphill vids are good too for mastering both sides. But, don't know if others are like me but when I'm gunning downhill, my HR doesn't feel like its slowing down much at all. haven't seen it in my HR data collections either, and yes......they quads sure do take a beating, if u go over 5km worth of distance.

As a non-runner its interesting to hear that races are won on the downhill in hilly races.
