Road (flat) is for speed and hills (trails) are for strength. You need both.
It sounds like you’re heart rate training which is great for building a base.
Keep up the great work/fun! I’m looking forward to following you’re 2018.

That's a great advice. Thank you very much! I will definitely try to not only run on trails.
In my past I was always running that one same trail and never running paths without hills.
Now I am excited to know what my pace would be if I ran on a road. Do you think the pace will be a lot faster?
There are two many variables for me to say. It will be a contributin factor. There are different opinions as to running only aerobically, speed work, hill repeats, strength training, plyometrics, nutrition, etc.
I plan on writing about the various things I try and my results.
I'm looking forward to your post! :)
