8 x 400 is one of my favorite workouts. 400 repeats are a staple of the track world from half milers to marathoners.

Stretched quite a bit. Sprints, I'm guessing about 75 yards between light poles at the gym. Ran one way, walked back. 2.6 miles total.

You can do so many body weight exercises. TRX is another route. TRX fits in a little bag. Lastly if you're working out in a park you can ratchet this this thing to a tree for chins and dips. Below is an effective routine.

1. bodyweight deep squats
2. Jumps from the lunge positions switching legs as you jump up.
3. Standing on one leg do a stiff leg body weight dead
4. pull ups
5. Body weight rows (face toward the sky grabbing a bar and row you body. I find it more effective if I elevate the legs to make my body horizontal.
6. push ups all kinds
7. Feet elevated push ups for more delt involvement.
8. dips
9. reverse grip pull ups for more bicep involvement
10. burpees or mountain climbers for conditioning.
11. one leg calf raises with knee locked
12. Some ab work like crunches, leg lifts or sit ups.
13. neck work like front and back bridges on a pillow. If that is too  tough use hand pressure.

Finish with a run.

TRX is something that comes in a little bag but you can anchor it to a tree, door or an anchor that you can buy separately.

Outside. There's a park next to me with a .75 mile path around it. They've locked the parking lot so there are very few people there.


3/30:
30 minutes lifting furniture -arms and Delts. 11/2 mile stroll

You can work your arms and upper body with pushups and pullups.

Maybe you can rig up a pull up bar of some sort.  Home Depot sells pipe and brackets or find a playground with a setup.  Bunji cords can work too.

Also isometrics.  All you need is a piece of rope or chain, push/pull against things.

Legs are more difficult but bodyweight squats are good.  1 leg calf raises too.
