30 Day Challenge program

Week 2 | Day 14

Long Day

Time: 70 min.
“One does not overcome an obstacle to enter the land of no obstacles.” — Ryan Holiday

The goal is to keep a steady pace for 60 minutes.

Bringing a friend along is a good idea for this one because you should be able to pass the talk test. This means that while running you should be able to hold a conversation without feeling breathless.

If running the whole time is still a struggle, try breaking it up like you may have done last week, but increase the amount of time you run or decrease the amount of time you walk.

Remember to explore, breathe some fresh air, and enjoy every step.
