I remember when I used to work out with a friend at the gym and getting glares from people as we laughed our whole time chatting on the ellipticals. The time always flew by. Now my faves are TED talks and music as well as other podcasts.

I just tricked myself by listening to an interesting podcast while on my elliptical :-) Before I knew it, my feet were aching a bit and I looked at the timer to see I had gone 46 minutes, was dripping with sweat and was still going strong. <br />I am loving the supportive #temt tweets and comments here on the blog. Thanks again.Joan Young (aka Mancini)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06862764260067132727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685152811476172617.post-21333065364790245612010-08-02T14:26:52.982-07:002010-08-02T14:26:52.982-07:00Joan,

Every time I felt that I maybe needed to stop, I focussed on my music and told myself "You feel the exact same way you did a kilometre ago, just keep going!" And like you, I started listening to different music, to keep my pace more steady. Switching it up a little is great to play a trick on our own brains sometimes. <br />Thanks for the inspirational thoughts once again.<br />:)<br />KellyKelly Powerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10015239938715918570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685152811476172617.post-10752102998112947702010-08-02T13:12:42.844-07:002010-08-02T13:12:42.844-07:00That's great!

For me, it's a change in the workout. (I'm not really into running - hehe) This reminds me of the whole "muscle confusion" that is one of buzzes in the video exercise world where you change your routine before your body gets used to what you're doing. <br /><br />Seem like we could all do well to confuse our minds too!Elizabeth Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13740409123355763568noreply@blogger.com
