Head-to-Toe Running Workout

By

Good morning and happy FITNESS Friday to you!

Here’s a challenging running workout that will challenge your entire body from head to toe. Try it today, this weekend, or put it on your calendar for next week. It’s a guaranteed great workout!

As you probably remember, I love high-intensity running workouts that include a variety of strength movements. They keep both my mind and body engaged and they are a whole lot of fun. I swear, the time just flies by!

Head-to-Toe Running Workout

This workout starts with a 200 meter run followed by 15 Squat Jumps and a 60-second side plank hold. After that, you’ll run 400 meters followed by 20 Push-Ups and a plank hold on the other side. Then, the running distance will increase to 800 meters followed by 25 Burpees (you love me!) and another side plank hold. You’ll continue to work your way back down the ladder of exercises and finish with 15 Squat Jumps. For even more of a challenge, repeat the workout from the top for two full rounds. Happy sweating!

Outfit details:

  • Top: I get questions all the time about my tanks and one of my very favorites is the Distance Running Tank Top from Brooks Running because it’s comfortable and totally fuss-free. When I exercise, I don’t want to worry about what I’m wearing, so this tank is definitely a go-to for me. It’s super soft, sweat-wicking, and flattering (not too tight, but not baggy either). I love it. I also own a pair of matching stripped Chaser 3″ Shorts from Brooks that are so cute and perfect for both running and other kinds of workouts (aka they’re not super tight on the quads and move with you). I especially love their thick waistband with drawstring, which is comfy and flattering, and I don’t have to worry about them falling down or moving around too much during my workouts.
  • Leggings: These are another favorite for sure! They’re from Fabletics, who I recently started working with, and I wear them for workouts, running errands, and just lounging around the house. The material is soft and actually quite a bit thicker than other leggings that I own, but I really like that high-quality feeling.
  • Sneakers: Oh, how I love my Brooks Adrenaline “Nantucket” GTS! I wear them ALL the time for both workouts and everyday life. They are seriously the cutest sneakers ever created (and super comfy!), and I get compliments on them all the time.

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
