Laides and gentlemen, welcome to pre-written blog post #1. I'm getting my unreliable Internet replaced over the weekend so I'll be back to normal in no time.
Quick running update:
I haven't run since the last post but I'm going tonight. Three cheers for the last few hot days of the summer (if we're lucky)!
Now ... on to the MUSIC!
I’m really shocked I haven’t breached this topic yet on here. Music is pretty flipping important to me and I pride myself on my taste. But then again, who can’t say the same? I decided I needed to post this list on my run Saturday morning at Otto Amleder (which I blatantly misspelled in my last post) Park. I had just started my first 5-minute running when an unlikely hero saved the day. Now, have you ever noticed that your iPod plays the same songs over again, even if there are loads more in that playlist? This song has been on my playlist since I created it but I don’t think it has ever popped up. When it came on on Saturday I laughed and then reveled in its power. Yes, its power. Thank you Kid Rock and “Bawitdaba” for making that the easiest 5 minutes ever. Awesome.
Read it, love it, tell me about yours. In my experience, often your favorite every day music isn’t necessarily your favorite exercise music. Is that the case with you? I love running to hip hop and even some heavy rock, but even surprising songs like “Rhiannon” by Stevie Knicks can get me to keep running (it’s not exactly high-energy). Tell me about your music!
The following is my current “Running” playlist on my iPhone. It needs a few songs added to it and a few removed, but I’ve been fighting with iTunes lately and haven’t had the chance to fix it.
