It was like a scene from a movie!

I did run 1 week 4 today. I had been apprehensive about doing the 5 minute runs. The first run I found difficult but the following ones became better. I got to 4 minutes of my last run of the session when I felt myself flagging. I remembered what Lauren had said slow down don't stop! Suddenly the track I was listening to stopped and on came....... Eye of the Tiger!! Not only did it make me laugh but spurred me on for the rest of the run! It's surprising how the tracks we run to can give us so much motivation. What's your motivational song??

He He. It's great when that happens. Echo Beach by Martha and the Muffins reminds me of lots of high points in my life. Really picks up the pace.
