Day Eleven!

I actually finished 45 minutes on the elliptical and burned 435 calories!  I know that for some this is no big deal but for me it is miraculous!

This time I started by listening to a club mix of 80's divas, you know, Chaka Khan, Gloria Estafan, Lionel Ritchie... you get the picture. There is an obscure George Michael song called "Outside" that has a great club beat and seems to last forever and I finished with Elton John's "Saturday Night's Alright".  Wow!
I must have been in a nostalgic mood this morning!

Music helps me keep me going in two ways.  First, I need a strong beat to kind of pump me up. That is probably true for most.  Second, I make deals with myself to keep going.  I'll think "you can't look at the time until the song ends" or "only two songs until your finished". 

Whatever it takes!
