How AH-MAYZING is Ellie Goulding?!?

The 26-year-old singer may not look like an athlete, but that didn't stop her from running the Nike Women Half Marathon in Washington, D.C. yesterday!!

Since the marathon has been raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for nine years, we can see why Ellie wanted to take part in such a wonderful cause.

And to give us a little insight on her feat, she told Vogue everything about why she ran the marathon, how she trained, and what music she listened to while she ran.

Here are the HIGHlights:

Walking your dog is so old fashioned!

Running with your dog is totally in!

Not only is it a good workout for your pooch, but it is also an awesome workout for yourself.

Imagine that!!

Here are some tips to get you and your dog started! They are:

"1. Don’t start too young. Dogs’ bones need time to grow and set, so if you intend on doing long-distance running with your dogs, it’s best to wait until their bones have matured. You could start running with some smaller breeds at around 6 months, while with larger breeds it’s best to wait until they’re at least one.

2. Get to the vet. While many of us don’t seek the advice of our doctors before engaging in specific exercise routines, we ought to. And the same goes with your dog’s vet. Letting your vet know that you want to run with your dog will cue the vet to pay special attention to your dog’s heart, joints, and other areas.

3. Build up distance. You wouldn’t go out and run 10 miles on your first trek, would you? Just because you’re ready for that distance now, doesn’t mean your dog is. Let him build up to longer distances, so that his muscles, and paws, and get accustomed.

4. Pamper the pads. Those dog pads are amazing things. They can take a beating like nothing else. But they’re not indestructible. If you choose to run on pavement (trails are a better alternative), this rough terrain can tear up your dog’s paw pads. Inspect your dog’s pads after each run for cuts, glass, etc."

After those tips we bet you can't wait to get running with your dog!
