Can i just add that *walking* back down is really good advice, especially if you're doing x-country. getting closer to the in season, reversing this - so you're doing hill repeats gently up and then running down is good for overspeed work.

and again, if you can connect with a good coach just to check out your technique, you'll likely make way more improvements with better technique than running tons of stairs.
