48.0 miles: Best Running Song EVER (end of Month 1!)

Caught up on Make It or Break It today. [ABC Family show about gymnasts. Laugh if you want, but watching shows about sports makes me want to do sports. Which is good for running motivation ;)]

Not the point: The most recent episode ended with a song that instantly got adopted to my running library: One More by Superchic[k].




It's interesting because this past week I have been thinking, this is my approach to increasing my distance! I go just one more block...or just one more block in each direction...and suddenly I've run 3 miles instead of 2! :)

Other lessons, or strategies learned? I learned I can run much better without music than I thought. That I can convince myself to run in the morning :) That my best runs happen when I'm distracted; when I'm daydreaming, usually.

Goals for next month: Run 4-5 times a week, not 3-4 as happened this month. I mean, aim for 5, 4 is an absolute minimum. Also, hydrate better! I also aim to finish 105 miles by June 30.

So, "Got 100 steps to go| Tonight I'll make it 99" Or rather, tomorrow I finish my first 50 miles! In just a little over a month! :D

  1. I though "I'm Gonna Be" by the Proclaimers would be the best running song ever. Sure, they say "walk", but it is 1000 miles.

  2. Haha, thanks! I haven't heard that song. I'd point out that they say "500 miles" then "500 more" but I guess it adds up to 1000. It's slower than most songs I like to run to; still, I might try it in the morning ;)
