Does the winter weather have ya running on a treadmill? Love it or hate it – treadmill running might be the only way to get in the miles. Go into with a positive attitude and check out these tips for getting the most out of your workout! I’m talking with Dr. Casey Kerrigan about how to get a better treadmill workout.

And since she mentions music as a good motivator… I’m sharing my favorite running songs. And during the interview I tell her my major fail with listening to a book while running…

Warm-up…

My treadmill story… I only ran on a treadmill

Then, I bought my own and it was the start of a long love story with running…

Harvard educated doctor, runner, and footwear expert Dr. Casey Kerrigan, co-founder of Charlottesville, VA-based OESH Shoes,  is talking about how to run on the treadmill to get the most out of your workout.

Dr. Kerrigan’s Top 5 Treadmill Tips:

1.   Set the treadmill to manual and listen to your body, not a program on the treadmill.
2.   Keep your cadence (strides per minute) at 90 or above.
3.   Listen to music!  But only on a treadmill…don’t use headphones outside.
4.   You don’t have to run on an incline if you don’t want to!
5.   Run smart, don’t get injured. – If you’re training to increase endurance, follow the 10% rule:  Don’t increase your mileage any more than 10% per week.

Another important piece of advice from Dr. Kerrigan is to take pain seriously.  She suggests following a “24 Hour Rule” – if a pain develops from running that doesn’t go away within 24 hours, don’t run that day.  If it still persists the following day, talk with your trainer or coach.
