1. Switch up Your Running Routes
Okay, so first off, if you are running the exact same running route on a consistent basis, this is BORING! Running the same route will wear your passion out quickly and will also deprive your body of new challenges! So switch up your running routes to make the most out of every workout and challenge your body to even greater results!
2. Change the Terrain
If you run the roads every day, you may want to switch up your terrain and head to the trails. Trail running is a great way to challenge your body, in particular your core. There are usually trails mapped out so you can go the distance without hesitating and have a great time!

I absolutely love adding hill repeats into training because this is a super way to strengthen your hamstrings, build stamina and strengthen your body. Adding hill repeats can break up the monotony and also prevent an injury. So run some repeats and get in your best shape!

To add some zest to your running routine, invite a friend for the journey. Running with a partner is a great way to bond while getting your sweat on. It is the safest thing to do and it is also a great way to motivate one another.
5. Run to Your Destination
Save on gas and save the planet all while saving your health, and run to your destination. I recall running with my wedding invitations in a book bag on my back and I mailed them this way. It was all part of the process of conquering new challenges. So have some fun and run to your destination today!
