A couple years ago I read that hills help even if you go slowly as in like an easy or recovery day.
Where I live the only way to avoid any elevation gain is to go to a track.

Thanks
hills pay the bills!!💪🤘
I usually try to run some of the big hills even on my easy/slow days. There must be some benefit but not sure to what extent. If nothing else, it's nice to run hills even on easy days to incorporate different muscles than what you would use on flat terrain.
idk about you but my legs (and sometimes lungs) feel hills even when i jog them. i think there is some decent stimulus in there
Going downhill will speed up your cadence/turnover without you expending more energy. There might be some neuromuscular adaptation there?

A little, as with every other type of training and surface, gradient, weather conditions etc..
