As part of a school project due this week, we had to give someone a “health information gift.” Right before learning about the assignment, I received an email from a reader named Mary who was trying to get into running but having trouble with motivation. I decided that she was the perfect person to give the gift of health to! Mary said she preferred running on the treadmill to outside, but had trouble with boredom on the treadmill. Enter — my first fANNEtastic brochure! I created a workout brochure with 4 fun treadmill workouts for Mary, and I thought you all might be interested in the brochure, too! It includes two 20 minute workouts, one 25 minute workout, and one 30 minute workout, all at varying speeds and inclines.

Isn’t the brochure cute? Matt actually created it for me 🙂 I had made a super lame handwritten version and he took one look at it and asked sweetly if I’d like help making a computer version that looked a bit more professional, heh. Thanks, Matt 🙂
Click here to download my brochure so you can print it out and bring it with you to the gym! I’d love to hear how it goes if you give the workouts a try.
Similar to two weeks ago, we did the following workout:
Here are our splits:
p.s. I’m annoyed that it’s so dark out in the mornings again now. Sigh. I think I’ll take morning light over evening light! How about you guys? Would you rather have light in the morning or the evening?
Have a wonderful day 🙂

Speaking of running, yesterday morning my friend Jillian and I had our last half marathon training speed workout at the UNC track!
Similar to two weeks ago, we did the following workout:
- Run to the track (1.5 m)
- 800 (2 laps) warm-up (0.5 m)
- 800 at ~7:30 pace (0.5 m)
- 3 lap recovery at ~8:45 pace (0.75 m)
- 800 at ~7:30 pace (0.5 m)
- 1 lap easy warm-down (0.25 m)
- Run home (cool down) (1.5 m)
Here are our splits:

- Mile 4: 8:03
- Mile 5: 9:13 (cool down)
- Last 0.6 miles: 9:10 pace
p.s. I’m annoyed that it’s so dark out in the mornings again now. Sigh. I think I’ll take morning light over evening light! How about you guys? Would you rather have light in the morning or the evening?
Have a wonderful day 🙂
