What's On My Playlist

When I work out on the elliptical, spin on the spinning bikes, or run on the dead-mill I like to watch a TV show. We have a TV in our workout room at home and there are also TVs on campus or at the YMCA; however, I prefer to watch my shows the next day or even a few weeks later on my iPad or iPhone because then I get to skip the commercials. Another nice thing about watching it on one of my devices is that I can pause the show and finish it the next day.

My favorite shows to watch are: The Bachelorette, Extreme Weight Loss, Pretty Little Liars and The Biggest Loser. Then I sometimes watch Netflix and miscellaneous shows from ABC, CBS or NBC.

When I am not watching a show I am listening to music. If I sit in silence and try to workout I will go NOWHERE. It is no fun for me. Especially when I am running. I need the music to motivate me and keep my legs moving.

The songs currently on my ‘workout’ playlist are:

absolute all time FAVORITE song

Each one of these songs help me get through my workout. When the songs Beautiful and Beautiful Girls come on I just remind myself how beautiful I am and how I will turn heads. {haha I know it is tacky!} When the song F*ck You comes on I just think of all of the jerks in this world and I think to myself to forget about them. They don’t matter and especially not in your workout! I Run For Life, this is a song about breast cancer. I know a few people who have/ have had breast cancer and it is about being strong and tough. {Waddup Breast Cancer awareness month. Show some boobie pride!}

The best thing is when I am nearing my run and I can see my house/ campus, there is two things going through my head: sprint to the finish line you are almost there {but then I think hell no I have nothing left to sprint there brain! Chill-out} and my other thought is to start walking and begin my cool down {but then I think why the heck would I not go to the finish line, that would just be stupid, right?} Then the song DON’T STOP BELIEVING ~ Journey comes and I literally feel like I could run 3 more miles. It is amazing what one song can do for you!

I am liking this quote... I did something big today that I will share tomorrow. I mean don't get too excited, it's not that special. : )

“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.”
