How to get to Environment Variables from Run

Question

I often need access to the Environment Variables on my Windows 7. What command do I need to type in the Run window to get to them?

At the moment I do the following:

Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Press Start, type Path, and click Enter to select Edit environment variables for your account.

I know its not strictly using run but it works and literally takes less than 2 sec.
