I found the key to running

For me, it's my iPod!! I was so motivated last week - I loaded it with Foo Fighters and Bad Religion and Nirvana and Green Day and then a couple random "happy" ones....and it was like having a drill sargeant yelling "run!" in my ear

I did a 5k twice last week and before that the most I had run was 15 minutes.

Very cool! From what I understand iTunes has playlists premade for runners. I have my new iPod sitting next to my computer and Pete just put together my eliptical on Saturday. I need to get some music on my iPod and get downstairs!

HA! And here I thought you were going to say "Just DON'T do it!"

I guess that's just my motto...

I agree....

But for me my motivation is Grease

The same thing happened to me! I could barely break 2 miles, and when I set up my playlists, I got up to 5. It's magic!
