Running uphill can slow a runner down, even when they are used to running hills without becoming tired. Also, they will never make up the time lost running uphill, when they are running downhill. It is best to just stick to a route that is described as a flat and fast course. Finding a race that is mostly downhill, will certainly provide a more rapid time. If participating in a race with both ups and downs, it is best to consider where they occur in the run. It is preferred to have the uphill at the beginning or middle, and the downhill at the end of the race when the runner is more tired.
