20 Minute Lunchtime Circuit: Running Strength

Yesterday lunchtime I met up with running friend Steph, for a quick 20minute circuits session in the park across from my office. 

It was great to mix things up and do something different exercise-wise, especially as I do feel I need to make more of an effort to improve my running strength, and hopefully avoid further injuries. 

I also haven't been doing any high-intensity workouts recently- something I miss from Crossfit! The benefits of short-burst high intensity training are well documented, so it's definitely something I'm keen to add to my weekly schedule. 

This is more or less what we completed- I've just tidied it up a bit for the blog... I've also started collating other no-equipment required, quick outdoor bodyweight workouts on a Pinterest board as inspiration for our next session!

20minutes might sound short, but this was still a great hot and sweaty workout! 

We also finished with a plank seeing how long we could hold it for- not very long in my case, considering what we'd just completed, my legs were dead!
