Uphill training tips

[noel]

Thanks for the suggestions guys - so basically some speed work and some strength work.
Any particular suggestions on gym work for legs?

I'd go for cycling rather than gym work. It isolates your quads and is reasonably transferable to uphill running. It also has a lower risk of injury and is more enjoyable. However, opinion is divided in these parts - where's CL to voice the benefits of weight training?
