As the temperature cools and seasons are changing, try this workout either on the track or treadmill. It will scorch some calories, build some muscle, add some endurance, and even help increase your running pace.

5 min warm up walk/jog

Run 1 mile

20 Pushups

Run 1/2 mile

20 jump squats or switch lunges

Run 1/4 mile

20 Burpees

Run 1/4 mile

20 jump squats or switch lunges

Run 1/2 mile

20 pushups

5 min cool down walk 

** One cycle= 3 miles. Challenge yourself and repeat the cycle for a 7 mile run and dynamic strength work out.

** Try to increase your pace each running distance. Example: 1 mile 6 mph, 1/2 mile 6.5mph, 1/4 mile 7mph

**Not a "runner"? You can still follow this pattern on a stationary bike or walking.
