Day 50 - Monday - Elliptical with Enzo! Well, not really with Enzo, but his music selections were an integral part of my morning. As usual, I was using the elliptical machine and streaming WRIR on my phone. But I was not really FEELING the exercise that morning. I did 2.85 miles, but I was getting tired of the elliptical. So I switched over to the seated elliptical where Mark's usually exercising. I figured I'd go another 2.85 miles there and then maybe go home. I pushed the 2.85 to 3 miles because the music was energetic enough and because, since I was sitting down, I could actually check my email and stuff WHILE I was exercising. I know, it's lame, but at least it kept me on the machine. I can't remember what distance I was at. I think around 4 miles. And I was thinking of leaving. And then, dammit, Enzo played "No Cars Go" by Arcade Fire. That song is packed with so much energy that it was like it was physically impossible for me to stop. In fact, I had to pick up the pace and push as hard as I could to try to keep tempo with the music. I ended up going another full mile, finishing at 5 miles on the seated elliptical.
So thank you to Enzo and Arcade Fire for helping me cover 7.85 miles on Monday, for a grand total of 80.16 miles!!!
