RUNEW CHALLENGE
RUNEW is a four-week challenge combining the power of RUNNING, STRENGTH, & MEDITATION to kickstart your transformation and get you leaner, stronger and happier.
This is a different kind of challenge. No insane workouts that leave you fatigued. No crazy diets. It's a well-balanced program that will push you out of your comfort zone, but it will teach you the right way to mix cardio, strength, and mindfulness into your week. We will give you a schedule that works right into your lifestyle so you can sustain it for the long term. We want you to get healthy... and stay healthy.
We've designed Running Plans and running-specific Strength Workouts to help improve your running performance, build lean muscle, and prevent injury. Meditation sessions will breathe mindfulness into your daily life.
Led by endurance athletes and certified coaches Jaymie Pizarro, The Bull Runner, Tricia Chiongbian-Concepcion and Jim Spiers, RUNEW will meet you where you're at and help you achieve your fitness goals.
The real challenge for you is: Will you be able to sustain what you learn from us and live a healthier, better life? Take the challenge and let's find out!

+ RUNNING: There will be three running plans for: Novice, Intermediate and a Base Training Plan for Experienced runners. More advanced / competitive runners may choose to increase mileage on Sundays or use your own running plan on specified run days. New runners may opt to replace the run with walking or run/walk intervals for a gentler approach to running.
