A brisk steady flat 27 miles Saturday and about 21 miles today. Today's ride included 4 repeats of a short steep hill that I found recently in Hidden Falls Park by the river- it's a 100 foot climb with an average grade of 10%. I wish there were longer hills around here, but they are far and few between.
Do hills like this work as "intervals" or are they too short and puny to have much training value?
