Week 8!
Week 8 and a New Year.
Amazing - and we didn't need the week off at Christmas after all. (That was originally suggested - but some felt it was a week where exercise was especially critical.) I guess this 30 minutes of activity has already become so ingrained in our weekly schedules that finding the time has become easy - if not always the motivation.
And we all have even more new personal goals now - more miles, more time at maximum training rates, more reps, more push-ups, etc.
Have one more request for all you Challengers - some of you have talked over the past week about the motivational power of music when you're working out. So why not post your top 5 Challenge songs! Or maybe it's a motivational speaker or a radio station or Seinfeld on your Video iPod! Let us know what you're listening to while your working out! What get's you going?
Happy New Year gang.

Sunday - 50:52 4 Miles running including warmup. Didn't track heart rate but set incline at max and used the pulsing strategy - go as fast as possible for 1 minute, then slow down for 1 minute, then fast again. (Supposed to build stamina???)
Monday - 30 minutes on the bike
Tues - 30 minutes bike
Wed - On the treadmill at 4 MPH I did numerous reps of curls, etc with free weights just for a change up. After that for 30 minutes I could hardly lift my arms.
Sat -Running 40 min 3.02 miles plus stretches, sit-ups, etc.
Music? I asked because I'm often surprised whe I find what people listen to when they work out. I love Fat Boy Slim for the reason Wally said - strong beat, long tunes - and they seem to be in the right range. My favorite workout song is 'Come With Me' by P. Diddy. See? I told you you'd be surprised.
