I've Got The Fever!!!

I've got the Fever, and not the Beiber fever. (Thank goodness!) I have spring fever. It's like my mind and body have come out of hibernation with the vanishing of the snow.  Yippee! We have had some of the most beautiful spring weather lately, and it has made me actually WANT to go out and run.

 I am still so far behind that it's ridiculous, but I have great coaches and I know that they will help me succeed. :  ) Except for Mark who will probably kick my butt the next time he sees me, because he hasn't seen me in FOREVER! Sorry, Mark! : )

 Anyway, one good thing about the crappy winter weather that makes you want to stay in is that you have time to work on your playlists for when you do go back out. I now have a library of amazing body groovin', feet movin', booty shakin' playlists that will get me through my workouts. I know that there are those out there that think running is spiritual and that one should commune with nature as you work out, but I need some kind of soundtrack to my life. I am extremely motivated by music, and it often helps me push through when I want to stop. Now if I were in better shape and it wasn't such a struggle for me, I would probably go out a few times without music and be one with nature. But until that glorious day and probably beyond, I need my music/motivation.  That one last rhythm and beat that makes me continue to put one foot in front of another until I finish.

So here is my playlist for the week. Lots of oldies but goodies.
