My name is Julie and I blog over at Peanut Butter Fingers. My blog follows my life as I try to work out regularly, eat (mostly) healthy and enjoy each day with my brand new husband (we were married in October) and our nut job of a dog, Sadie.
When Janae reached out to me about guest posting on her blog, I freaked out a little because I am an avid Hungry Runner Girl reader and love Janae’s positive outlook on life, her obsession with candy and her intense love for Billy and her family. As I started to brainstorm guest post ideas, I thought you guys might enjoy a post that featured some super-sweaty workouts.

" That's because scientists and coaches now know that you can't run your best without a strong core, the muscles in your abdominals, lower back, and glutes. They provide the stability, power, and endurance that runners need for powering up hills, sprinting to the finish, and maintaining efficient form mile after mile. "When your core is strong, everything else will follow," says Greg McMillan, a running coach in Flagstaff, Arizona, who has worked with scores of elite and recreational runners.
The key is to train your core like a specialist. All runners-from those rehabbing injuries to elites gunning for PRs-can benefit from this detailed approach. Quality core work isn't easy. Speed Uphills Downhills Endurance Lateral Movement. Getting Fit.
