How should you travel up and down a slope in a 10k at?

When traveling up a slope during a 10k, focus on maintaining a steady pace and using shorter strides to conserve energy. Engage your core and lean slightly forward to help propel yourself upward. On the descent, allow gravity to assist you but control your speed by leaning back slightly and using longer strides. Always stay mindful of your footing to prevent injury, especially on uneven terrain.
