概要

Downhill running is one of the most damaging parts of trail racing, not because it is aerobicly hard, but because it places heavy eccentric load on the muscles, especially the quads. In this episode, we explain why downhill running creates so much soreness and fatigue, and why the solution is not to avoid it, but to train it progressively.

The key idea is that downhill training should be treated like strength training for runners: small doses create adaptation, but too much too soon can disrupt the rest of your training. We cover the repeated bout effect, common mistakes runners make, and how to build downhill durability safely through controlled exposure, good technique, and eccentric strength work.

The main takeaway is simple: train downhill like strength work, not like free speed.
