Today was my first run in a long time, at least 2 weeks, maybe almost 3. I had taken a break because I thought I might actually be pregnant. Ha ha...joke was on me. So for my first run, I did lots of hip swiveling! BUT I made it through 30 minutes and that was the goal. While I was on my run, I was reminded of something that I can't live without when I run: my Ipod.
I have found that I will not go for a run if I don't have my Ipod around. If you're at all interested in picking up some form of exercise, and you don't have a buddy to partner up with, you really should consider a walkman or Ipod. My runs are therapeutic for me not just physically, but mentally. After I lost our baby in March, a sweet friend made a CD of inspirational music for my husband and I. Those songs were quickly uploaded to my Ipod making running into a renewing of both mind and body. If you're struggling with kids who hate the stroller, strap them in. Give them a cup and small snack, put on your Ipod and turn it up...You'll never hear the squalling! O.K. so I'm kidding, I know it's not that easy. But you'll find that adding music to your workout really will add to the overall quality.
