Well, I listened to music again today. And my pace is better. A lot. Not as in a minute better per mile. Because it will take time to get back to that physically. But in the 15-30 second/mile range. Which, as you know, is a big deal. Now that I think about it, it's more like 30 seconds. So.
Decision: I have to switch it up. Because listening to books really kept me motivated. But it did lose some of it's magic after a time. Which makes sense. Over time, it loses that newness factor. So I'll just really pay attention and switch between music and books.
I wish there was a metronome watch. You know, just something that would deliver a little tap to the wrist at 180 beats/sec.
But I did have a fun time today. Beautiful day here, in direct contrast to your weather!
Have you watched the movie Pitch Perfect? If not, let me forewarn you, it's a musical! I still laugh about when we watched that Tom Cruise movie and you said to me, "You didn't tell me it was a musical!" And I didn't, that's true! Anyway, it's a super cute movie and I have the album for it. And here is the closing number, which I love:
Well, forget it! Stupid Universal won't share! Geesh!

Here's a terrible pirated version, but you can see it's super fun! And fun for running:

I'll take a look after this.
No run for me this morning. I'm afraid I'm coming down with a head cold. Have had a bad sore throat since Thursday night. That's how Angie's latest bought started so I'm blaming her. I ran yesterday but I didn't sleep well at all last night so just forgetting it today. Getting the old cars out of storage this morning and didn't get out of bed until 7:30 so pressed for time, too. Hope I don't get the full blown deal like Angie had.
I think we always need to be switching things up to keep motivated, etc. I just bought a new Rhonda Vincent CD and was going to listen to that this morning. So now it will wait until Monday.
Well, I liked the beat but, of course, I couldn't understand a word they were singing. and, when watching some of their actions, I'm not sure I want to!
I've been watching Prime Suspect on Netflix this week and I like it very much but they are so long! Each episode is two parts and each part is 100 minutes long so takes two whole evenings.
Ha, may not! I loved that movie. It was hilarious. And that video is indicative of the entire movie!
Yeah, Midsomer is 90 minutes, I believe, and it gets long. I have a youtube attention span. 2 minutes and I'm done if I'm not interested!
Hope you're feeling better. Sure am sorry you're not feeling well. I blame Angie too! Hopefully it is just a cold and not her whooping cough!
