Music to get you going!
Was at the Gym again this evening, and my personal trainer has added a few excercises to my plan for me. Like it’s not tough enough already!
Hence, I thought I’d take some motivation with me today, in the form of a walkman.
It worked pretty well throughout, and then triumphed on my last excercise…the dreaded run!
So, I’m on the treadmill, I’ve got 5 minutes left, and I’m completely exhausted. I’m contemplating slowing it down, or better yet, turning it off! This is the bit where Led Zeppelin get involved. The treadmill is setup to automatically adjust the pace, it alternates between a fast walk and a run. I’m listening to ‘Stairway in Heaven’ and 4 minutes fly by.
The very last minute is a run, and I am so so tired. Then this inspired piece of music begins (click play to have a little listen):
What do I do? I crank up the speed and run like the wind for that last minute!
I think I’ll be taking my walkman with me more often.
