If you're 90 years old it's a possibility.

If you're not new to exercising you should know best if this will burn you out. I would advise you to lift more. Your diet should also be looked at if you're looking to make some changes to your body.

You need at least 500 grams of ultrafiltered whey protein every day.

Also, I love lamp!

Im guessing the lifting should be done before running? But prior to lifting do a warm up jog...

If you want to be 'toned' then you should be thinking more about changing your diet and lifting heavy weights.

A good way to maximize your exercise time is to do compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, pullups/chinups) and supplement that with a little bit of "cardio" afterwards. Worked for me.

I think you should add some variety. That's a whole lotta running. What about cycling/swimming/rowing...anything
