Ready! Set! Go! --> September Workout + Meal Plan!

Something about the fall and the cooler mornings makes me want to go out and RUN! Ohio is also known for some amazing 1/2 and full marathons each year around this time so its inspiring to see others taking their workout outside! I haven't laced up my running shoes in quite a while but thought it would be a FUN challenge to combine my favorite HIIT (high intensity interval training) workouts with an optional running challenge to work my way up to a 5K. SO, this is what I am following this month!

I choose a NEW program every month and plan it out in advance. That way when I am up early in the am to workout, I don't have to think about what my workout is going to be. I just push play and I am ready to go. All of this can be done from home and is accessible anytime. 100% flexible. Pick and choose your workouts, mix them up with what you are already doing or do the program as is. Your choice!
