Most runners will tell you that the Spring and Fall are the ideal time to enjoy training. I always find it hard to stay motivated and maintain my runs during the summer. The summer has its own benefits-longer days, lots of sunshine, trips to the beach, sundresses!
While I would not trade those things for a long run, I do find that I need a little extra motivation during the summer.
Until fall weather arrives in a few months, I will be relying on these tricks.

1. Trying out some snazzy new sneakers.

| Nike Lunar Trainer |
The jury is still out on the new kicks. The color is fun and I love how light they are, but I do not love the new blisters on my heals.
2. Treadmill Workout

3. New gear.
Specifically new tops help me stay (and look) cool!  |

...try out some new classes at the gym. Summer is a good time to try out a new class at the gym; they are typically less crowded in the summer and it is a good way to stay fit when the temps are brutal.
What is your tried and true tip for staying fit during the summer?
Good for you! I am trying to stay motivated to keep walking on the treadmill in our garage. When it's 100 outside, I sweat easier which makes me feel like the workout is shedding pounds/cals!
