Good morning! I don’t have a long post for you today because I’ve been mentally fried this week and haven’t had it in me to spend a lot of the time on the computer after work, but I did want to pop in quickly and give you a workout that I originally planned to do last night. I say “planned” to do because I did it once and then forgot about it throughout the rest of my run. Womp.
With the weather seemingly on a turn for the better, though, I’ve been trying to take my workouts outside when I can. Last night wasn’t particularly great weather, but I still couldn’t stand to go run on a treadmill so I threw a long-sleeved shirt on and hit the pavement. I haven’t run more than 4 miles for as long as I can remember, but I decided to step it up a notch this week and run 5 miles. It felt surprisingly really good!
This workout can be done by walking or running the .5 mile increments and you can do it on a treadmill or outside.
I did my push-ups and triceps dips on a park bench and it was perfect!
Let me know if you try this. I plan to put a list together of all my favorite outside workouts soon!
Questions for you: Have you been working out outside lately? Do you prefer to run or walk outside or on a treadmill?
Burpees to Bubbly 
As much as I love being outside soaking up sun, I actually prefer running on my treadmill!!
I should start trying running workouts like this just for something different.
I see that you always run on the treadmill! I don’t mind the treadmill, but I really try to run outside when I can- it’s such a different experience!
I did your 35 min lunch workout the other day outside. I had to modify some of the moves since I wasn’t in a full gym, but with a bench available I was able to do most of it (I did tricep dips on a bench/used the bench for the set ups, etc..). But it felt great to do an outdoor workout and I was so sore!!
Hey Mary! Thanks for sharing- I love hearing when people try my workouts. And I LOVE that you did it outside! nice work 🙂
