Tomorrows TCI workout calls for 3–4 × 2' hill repeats. Living in Florida, the closest hill is about an hour drive from here. Should I just try to run on flat land and provide extra focus on knee drive?

Treadmills suck, but they are good for hill work, especially if you don't have any hills around.
Hmmm... I don't have access to a dreadmill (without buying a gym membership or something). It's definitely something to keep in mind though. I have a friend who will only run on a treadmill during Florida summers.
Not a lot of stairs around here either. The stands at a football field would probably work, but I think they are behind a locked gate.
45 minutes to the nearest beach. I wonder if the intent of having hill repeats in the workout is to have the extra resistance from a hill, or to focus on the change in form from running hills.
I was still struggling with this over 4 years later. I just ordered a NordicTrack Incline Trainer: it goes up to 40% grade. (Unfortunately it's still a treadmill i.e. not a real hill.)
