Running music

I was going to go for my first run today after the Christmas festivities, but it was raining so hard so I didnt go and I didn't want to just sit in and do nothing. So I decided to do 45 minutes of step with my running music on my iPod. My legs felt like running and I couldn't get the rhythm right for the steps, so I turned it off. After that my rhythm came back and my score was much better. Just goes to show how listening to running music while running trains your mind and body. Hopefully the weather will be kind to me tomorrow as I want to get out there.
