3 QUICK STRENGTH FOR RUNNERS WORKOUTS + FREE PDF DOWNLOAD

Welcome to the latest edition of "workout Wednesday" when each week I share a new running or strength training for runners workout.

I may or may not have mentioned that April has been one of the busiest months ever. I am the kind of person who likes to relax on the weekends... or run. That's the same thing. Amiright?

People are always asking me, what are you doing this weekend? The answer is usually "nothing" or "running." But not in April. I had a major event every weekend and have barely had time to breathe. Between this blog, taking care of my clients, trying to squeeze in my own workouts on top of my packed schedule, let's just say it's been challenging. It was a fun month with a race-cation, a milestone anniversary, out of town visitors, a weekend fitness professional's convention, and concerts (and meeting my favorite rock star, no biggie).  I plan to catch up on sleep and sanity in May. 

I'm sharing a couple of workouts that I've posted before, but I know I have some new readers since they were originally shared, and older blog posts often get buried after a few months.(Unless you follow me on Pinterest, you can save all your favorite workouts to your Pinterest workout board.) 

For this week's "workout Wednesday" I am sharing three of my most popular quick strength training workouts that can be done before your run as part of a warmup or could be repeated as a circuit on non-running days. Strength training is important to becoming a well-rounded athlete. It will help you run stronger, faster and avoid muscle imbalances that can lead to injury. 

You can download a printable PDF version of the workouts by entering your email address below. If you are already subscribed to the blog, then adding your email address again to get the download will not result in duplicate emails. Or just save to Pinterest for later.
