We all know that running is a fantastic workout, but we don’t necessarily know the best way to run. If you always run at the same pace, that doesn’t mean that you’re training poorly—it just means that you could be training better! Mixing up your speed will help you get fitter and faster in less time.
Next time you lace up your sneakers to get in a little cardio, try this “stoplight” method from Women’s Running instead. Think of this workout in three speeds: green (easy), yellow (moderate), and red (difficult). You can do this workout on a treadmill or on your runs outside, as long as you have a watch or phone to time yourself. Good luck, collegiettes—we know you can do it!
