Music to Boogie to

Because I feel the need, I wanted to list my soundtrack for running on sunday. It was a great mix of favorite upbeat songs that kept me moving. I only made it up the start of the Mushroom track, but it was great. I like running and walking to music - it makes it that much better of an experience

500 Miles - The Proclaimers
Deisel Power - Prodigy
The Shouty Track - Lemon Jelly
Everybody Loves A Carnival - Fat Boy Slim
Light is In Your Eyes - Voodoo Child
In My Heart - Moby
Crazy Stranger - Nickodemus
Body Movin'- Beastie Boys
Ray of Light - Madonna
Eat it Raw - Infected Mushroom
Direct Drive - ECD
Galaxy Bounce - Chemical Brothers
The White Room - The KLF
SpyBreak! - Propellorheads
Don't Stop Me Now - Lemon Jelly

As for fitness, I walked to work today - briskly for 40 minutes. Tomorrow it's back at the running...eep. I'll have to tell myself what to do know...

I did it :)

I deeeeeed it!

ON sunday morning I ran the 5Km race in 40 minutes and 20 seconds...I only walked 2 minutes of that! I can't believe I ran almost all of it...I'm really amazed.

WOO!

And my sweet husband and some of his friends surprised me at the finish with signs and crazy loud cheering and it really made my day. Apparently there's a shot in the paper of us all later cheering on another friend who was doing the 10 Km run and me warming up beforehand...now I have to track down a paper...:) J took some photos of me running but they're rather blurry...what with me running and all. It was a wonderful time - becuase you could walk or run there were people of all ages and families doing the events, 2, 5 and 10 Km. It was a wonderful experience - a real community event. There were over 800 people involved in it. And me? well, I am very proud of myself. I plan to keep at it.
Who knows, maybe I can do 10 Km next year?

Squeeeee!
