Running is probably the best way to get a cardio workout. But since you do nothing, except run, it is likely that performing this exercise will become stagnate and you will get bored. Getting bored with your workout is a really easy way to lose your motivation to be healthy, and that is a bad thing! So here are a couple things to make your run a little more exciting and effective
