Any ITunes, IPOD people out there.

Nike Sports Mixes are GREAT. I have a running one specific to building ENDURANCE. Alberto Salazar (apparently some famous running coach) narrates the 42 minute set, talking and coaching you through changes in pace, etc.

They also have mixes to improve strength and speed. The endurance one is working. I am not struggling quite as much through my 2-3 mile runs.

My father, husband, mother AND partner all chastise me for running with my IPod but it is the only way I can endure the torture.

It is like the flip flop argument. I KNOW they are not the safest footwear choice but my pedicured toes look so damn cute in them!!!

I think it’s by GodSmack. I was singing it during Thursday’s workout.

We have too many heroes lost and not enough workout days to commemorate them. I think it’s fitting to always think of the men and women in service, whether military or peace officers and public safety, as we do our workouts. A bit of motivation to throw a little of our sweat and maybe a drop of blood on the floor in their honor.

There is no substitute for good coaching.
