Don't feel like running?

I love to run, but it’s becoming more difficult with my growing belly. I've had to officially stop running now and resort to walking - I despise the elliptical. I don’t love the treadmill, either, but with this cold weather, I’d rather be inside than out. The other week I remembered a walking routine I used to do before I started running that I’ve been trying in order to spice up those 30 minutes on the treadmill. If you’re having one of those days where you are stuck inside on a treadmill at the gym and don’t feel like running, you might want to try this:
