Extra, Extra, Run All About It!! The Week in Running: 6/28-7/05

Dear readers, let's take a look back at the week in running:

* As reported on Fitsugar.com on July 2nd, celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak has been putting actress Jordana Brewster through grueling treadmill workouts despite her knee injury which prevents her from actually running. Devising a workout that provides similar benefits to running, Pasternak has Brewster, "Putting the treadmill at an incline of 12...and climbing for 30 to 40 minutes" three times a week. Pasternak's Fast And Furious (Brewster starred in said movie) workout routine has proven successful for Alicia Keys, Eva Mendes and Halle Berry, and Brewster hopes to garner the same results (both in terms of fitness and Hollywood celebroty status!).
