Running\u00a0or walking the Winona lakes and taking in an amazing view of the bluffs at the same time is a popular choice for cardio in the spring, summer and early fall. But now that the weather is getting cooler and winter is slowly approaching,\u00a0lake runners will find themselves lost without a place to get their cardio in for the day. That being said, it&#8217;s time to explore the cardio options available indoors!<\/p>\n<p>The IWC is an obvious option and free to students with a WSU or Southeast Tech ID. Between the weight room, track and gym options, it has a lot to offer students and staff. However, if you are like me, finding something to do for cardio can be a struggle. So, here\u00a0are a few\u00a0different things you can try at the IWC to get those steps in:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/6192407960_de1286b70d_z.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2941 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/6192407960_de1286b70d_z.jpg\" alt=\"6192407960_de1286b70d_z\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/6192407960_de1286b70d_z.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/6192407960_de1286b70d_z-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The third floor is dedicated to a track, along with stationary bikes and corners\u00a0to do ab workouts. The track and bikes are a good way to get a cardio workout in. Personally, I love the track. If you do 10 laps, walking or running, that&#8217;s equal to one mile. Because of this, it is easier for me to keep track of how far I\u2019ve gone. Plus, who wants to go for a run in the winter or rain?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4968923904_a1fe99f14a_z.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2943 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4968923904_a1fe99f14a_z.jpg\" alt=\"4968923904_a1fe99f14a_z\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4968923904_a1fe99f14a_z.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4968923904_a1fe99f14a_z-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If the track is not for you, but you want to run, you also have the option to use a treadmill on the second floor of the IWC. There are a variety of speeds and slope combinations for you to pick from. Plus, there are TVs attached\u00a0to machines so you can work out without missing your favorite show!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4952222064_a413fce227_z-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2944 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4952222064_a413fce227_z-2.jpg\" alt=\"4952222064_a413fce227_z-2\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4952222064_a413fce227_z-2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2016\/09\/4952222064_a413fce227_z-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If the treadmill isn\u2019t your thing either, then you could try the elliptical. On these machines you are able to set your resistance and easily adjust your speed during your workout. The ellipticals also have screens attached for you to watch TV.<\/p>\n<p>So, enjoy running the lakes as long as you can, but then be ready with a cardio plan when you hit the IWC!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Winona has a many\u00a0options for students when it comes to working out.
