This guided 15-minute treadmill run takes you uphill while keeping your effort steady in Zone 2. Designed as a post-workout add-on, this session helps you build strength in your glutes, hamstrings, and calves, improve running efficiency, and reduce impact on your joints, all without leaving your aerobic training zone.
Even if you’re training for a flat race, the benefits of hill running carry over to smoother, stronger running on any terrain. Perfect for runners short on time, looking for strength without the weight room, or wanting an endurance boost.
We’ll focus on form, rhythm, and relaxed effort, finishing the session feeling stronger, not spent. Lace up, hop on the treadmill, and let’s climb together.
Join Coach Alicia for a one-hour and fifteen-minute guided endurance run designed to build aerobic strength, sharpen running form, and keep you motivated from start to finish. After a dynamic warm-up with running drills, you’ll ease into a steady Zone 2 effort for 55 minutes — the sweet spot for endurance development. The run finishes with four fast striders to train leg turnover and efficiency before cooling down.
Throughout the workout, Coach Alicia weaves in form cues, motivation, and education — from cadence and running economy to fueling, gear, seasons of life, and resetting goals. Whether you’re training for your next race or simply building your running base, this session will leave you feeling stronger, smoother, and ready for what’s ahead.

We also take a few minutes to talk about something many runners overlook: your health on the inside. I just had my annual physical, and it reminded me how important it is to check in with your doctor—especially when you’re training consistently.
As a coach and runner (not a doctor or dietitian!), here are some of the blood tests I recommend asking about at your next check-up:
* ✅ Complete Blood Count (CBC)
* ✅ Ferritin + Iron Panel
* ✅ Vitamin D
* ✅ Vitamin B12 and Folate
* ✅ Thyroid panel (TSH, Free T3, Free T4)
* ✅ Electrolytes: Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium
* ✅ Hormonal markers (like cortisol or testosterone) if you're training intensely
This episode is part workout, part wellness reminder: your performance starts with your health. Let’s run smart and take care of our bodies—inside and out. 💪
