We are full of treats for you this week! Ruthie has brought us a yummy treat with her Strawberry Shortcake, one of my favorite summer desserts. Now it is time for a fun treat, an awesome workout! I am still loving this weather, so we are heading to the track for today's fun treat!

The track is one of my favorite places these days, both for my own workouts but also for bootcamp workouts.

As always you are going to warm up and stretch anything that feels tight. You don't want to jump right into any workout.

Round 1:
Run 100 m
10 pushups
20 broad jumps
30 walking lunges
(these last two are going to keep you moving around the track)
RPT for 2 full laps

Round 2:
Run 200 m
10 pushups
20 single leg broad jumps (alt legs)
30 step and squat (big step forward then squat)
RPT for 2 full laps

Round 3:
Run 400 m

The track is a great place to get creative and get a killer workout!


Happy Fit Friday
Much Love and Peace~
Ruthie and Nichole
