I finally cracked

This weekend I bought new athletic shoes, thicker socks, a sports bra, and AN IPOD.

iTunes is currently converting the songs that were on my computer into iSongs or whatever.

The iPod is green. LOVE.

I am now prepared for exercise. Lab work used to keep me moving. However, since I don't do lab work frequently or regularly (is that okay, Cath) anymore, I need to get my ass doing something else. Perhaps the iPod will motivate me. I'll let you know.

hmm, the iphone was supposed to get my ass moving. Hasn't really worked. Hope you have better luck. Totally love the green. I wish the iphone came in different colors.

Go exercise!

Cath@VWXYNot? said...

Yes, that's OK ;)

The iPhone wasn't my first and only incentive to start running, but having podcasts to listen to really, really helps!

I love, love, love my ipod. It's probably my best technology purchase besides my laptop.

You'll love it - now, go get 'em!

have fun running!
I also picked up running again, after the pool closed. So far so good ...

I find that plunking down a significant chunk of money in the name of exercise does provide some motivation. It isn't long lasting, but it will usually be enough to get me started and into a routine.

It's working so far! The only opportunity I have to listen to the iPod lately is during exercise. I've been going "running" every 2-4 days, which is a huge improvement.
