That’s the same number of sessions I did in the whole first run-through of the Big Vert plan.
I’ve found a great place to do them, too (pictured below).
Average gradient probably over 30% |

I was doing the hill sprints on the road. But the steepest section I could find was just below 20% average gradient.
I hadn’t thought about doing them on the trails. But there are actually many non-asphalt steep slopes around here. The problem is the closest ones to me don’t have much traction.
But the one I found is doable. There’s only one step I need to be careful taking, and the average gradient must be over 30%.
And now that I’ve found I good place to do these, I’m finding these workouts fun. I go slower on this steeper, dirt slope, but I can go all out without worrying about something snapping as I felt it might on the road.
