Yes, You’ve Read That Post Title Correctly 😉
Last week I signed up for a 5 Day Faster Stronger Challenge at Running Moms. Carey is a physiotherapist and running coach looking to get moms into badass running shape with her programs. Last week was HIIT, strides, hills, core and just straight up running 🙂 (Want to try a few of her HIIT workouts? She has 3 of them, FREE, right here: 3 Simple HIIT Workouts)

| I did my strides on the indoor track at the Canada Games Centre. |
 |
| I did this HIIT at home with TeenThing. It kicked our butts! |
Carey is super supportive and was ready to answer any of our questions in the challenge (there was a Facebook page for us to talk/vent/share our experiences). Her workouts are made to fit into a busy mom’s schedule (she IS a mom, so she gets how hectic we can be!) She even had a quick Q&A with a nutritionist who gave us tips for what to eat before and after a run. Carey also has a Running Moms Facebook page (you can sign up for free through her website) where we can post our successes, our not so good days and get support.
I am now signed up for Carey’s 28 Day Faster Stronger Challenge.
This challenge starts tomorrow and I am super excited! I am ready to have someone tell me what to do, lol. This Challenge comes with a workout/running plan, nutrition plan and Good Form Running Series.
As a runner, I am stubborn and will not always fall back on my own personal training knowledge.
I am sometimes also less inclined to kick my own ass, lol.
I really needed something to push me (wisely) to get over my current running/training plateau. I have two back to back 5km races in September (Maritime Race Weekend – WOOHOOO!) and this was the perfect avenue to amp up my fitness.
Having a plan set out for me and knowing what I will need to eat each week will make my life so much easier!
So, the road to a faster and stronger me starts tomorrow.
Stay tuned for my weekly updates, I will be sharing everything here on the blog!!
