A workout for the days you don't feel like it



Hey Reader,

I built a workout in the app for the days you're tired, short on time, or just not into it.

It's called Not Feeling It.

Walk 5 minutes to warm up. Run 20 seconds, walk 2 minutes, repeat 5 times. That's 16 minutes and 40 seconds, and most of it is walking.

Twenty seconds is not a typo. On a low day, the point is getting out the door and doing something. And that still counts. Once you’re moving, you might even feel better than you expected. And if you don’t, you still showed up and finished.

If you have the iPhone app:

On Android, open Custom Workouts and build it from the numbers above. Takes about a minute.


Don’t have the app?

Start a 7-day free trial to try this workout, plus the full None to Run program and Custom Workouts.

success story

"I know my Nan would be so proud."

Amanda lost her grandmother last September. The grief was unlike anything she'd felt before, so she started walking as a way to work through it.

She had always wanted to run, and the idea of doing it in her Nan's honour is what got her to open None to Run.

The moment she remembers most is the first 5-minute run. She was nervous about making that leap. It felt good instead. Her body felt strong from the weekly strength workouts, and her mind got past the fear.

She graduates from the program in two weeks and hasn't missed a single run. She's already signed up for a 5K to celebrate.

In her words:

"I feel so much more connected to my body and my mind. My grief has also transformed. I carry it with me in different ways now. I think more intentionally about making sure I'm fueling enough, and I'm spending so much more time outside."

One more thing before you go...

We Asked, You Answered

Favourite Sports Bras

A couple of weeks ago, we asked what sports bra actually holds up for high-impact runs.

The community chimed in, and one sports bra came up more than any other: the SheFit Ultimate Sports Bra.

The community loves the fully adjustable straps and band, and the front-zip closure that skips the over-the-head wrestling match. Lululemon, Panache, Glamorise, Under Armour, and Anita all had loyal fans too.

The one piece of advice that beat every brand name: get properly fitted. More than one of you said it mattered more than the label on the tag.

Have a great week!

Cheers,

Coach Mark
