Running for a maximum calorie-burn (Day 26)

It's Saturday, and I'm going to use this as one last stab at really getting you to run. And I'll tell you why.


Running is good for you from head to toe, and if weight loss is your goal, it's one of the best exercises for achieving that, but it's also great for health and learning to crave healthier foods.




Running is great for time management as well, giving you an awesome workout in a short period of time. It requires no special equipment other than decent shoes and clothes, and I've found it's a great way to kill time while waiting for my kids at some event I've had to taxi them to.




So make a commitment to push the running today. Go out and do your walk/run technique, and push the running distances even further while keeping the recovery walks shorter. If you're still not having much luck with the running, then just make it a hard walk instead.
