Did You See This Cheese Roll?

I actually saw this for the first time on the news last night here in Hawaii. They showed footage from this year's Goucester Cheese Rolling event. Of course, I think these people are crazy.

The video below is footage from the 2007 Cheese Roll. As you'll see from the video, running downhill as fast as you can is not for newbies. LOL. There IS a place for it in your training when you become reach "ELITE" athlete status! However, if you're not an elite athlete (and most of us aren't, or at least not yet), then running uphill is much safer and more beneficial to our softball performance.

Check out this video though...
