On the other hand, hopping on the treadmill to do a speed workout can be a different story. Having a workout written out and prepared can be the difference between running on the treadmill and running away from it as fast as you can. With the treadmill screen staring right at you, hitting splits and measuring your heart rate is a cinch. Hit a few buttons and tune out; you’re legs will do the rest.

Linzay Logan is the copy editor for Competitor magazine and cares about punctuation probably a little too much. She particularly loves to avoid commas as well as add exclamation points whenever she can get away with it! She also loves to run marathons and half-marathons—probably a little too much. Don’t let her small size fool you; she’ll still try to outrun you anytime. Even though chances are she probably can’t.
