It's going to be a long semester.
But I'm happy. It gives me 30 minutes three times a week to myself, and I will be more in shape at the end! I can do it. Cue "I Will Survive" music...

take me out - franz ferdinand
i alone - live
harder to breathe - maroon 5
just another day - oingo boingo
ironic - alanis morrissette
fighter - christina aguilera
a little respect - erasure
anybody listening - queensryche

Great playlist!
12 miles in 30 minutes? that sounds very impressive to me!
Ooh-I love that Franz Ferdinand song. And I fully have the Fighter song on my work-out playlist, too. I have a go-to song on my list that I put on when I'm about to give up: "Push it to the Limit" by Rick Ross. You should check it out...but also, get it edited.
I love love love the bike. If I could burn enough calories on that sucker I'd do it more. My faves are when I get a good solid 30-60 minute ride. Way to go girl. Videos sure make it go by faster than just music alone. I used to watch seasons of Boy Meets World when while I rode. Hey maybe I should do that again. I've been looking for a zing in my spring. :)
I am wishing you just inspired me to workout myself but I am sorry to say that I still feel like being lazy (dang it!). Hopefully in the future (when I stop waking up in the middle of the night thinking of all the things I need to get done and not being able to fall back asleep) you will inspire me because it would be nice to be in better shape. :)
Keep it up Erin, I'm right there with you - in spirit! :)
Great job, I love the elliptical, and a movie/tv.
Wow! Great job!! I haven't felt that mushy-leg feeling in a while, I'm afraid...
Are you going to the Corn Festival on Saturday in Enterprise?? We're heading up tomorrow!!
I wish I had a class like that. It'd be awesome to 1) get an easy A and 2) be forced to go to the gym.
Wow! You were bookin' it! I usually only make it about 5 miles in 1/2 hour on my exercise bike, and I feel like I'm going fast.
12 miles is amazing! Good for you!
My husband has a cousin who started cycling (on the road) to lose weight and combat his diabetes. He goes at least 100 miles a week and can sometimes go 40 miles or more on a single ride. He's lost about 80 pounds so far and his diabetes is non-existent.
Way to go Erin!
I am going to check out some of these songs. I haven't heard of some of these. Yes, I live in a cave.
Rosey
wow, I don't think I could even do 2 miles if my life depended on it, so good job!
Good for you! I have been trying to walk this summer (trying, not succeeding, being the key word) I hope it all goes well.
You go! I ride an exercise bike for 30 minutes first thing every morning. At 5:30 I'm up exercising! I read while I do it, so that's my "me" time. I actually look forward to it, more for the reading than the exercising.
Glad your first day went well. I think you'll have a lot of fun over time!
Thanks for the song suggestions!
The time alone is worth the work, huh?? Good for you!
Hey! Just saw your question on MMB, what a great one!
That's quite the random playlist. Now, go eat more oreos; you've got to carbo load for your next class, right?
Great Playlist! I love the look of your blog I'm a little embarrassed by how long I've neglected my blog buddies. Sorry about that :) Seriously though your blog looks amazing.
Good job!!! It is always so difficult to get motivated to exercise.
Hey Erin, I am new ti reading your blog...just stopping by to say hi and thanks for the playlist suggestions...I am always looking for good music to dance to!
that's what i need a new list on my ipod for walking!
i think i will survive will should be theme for a lot of us!
Oh, love your playlist. I've been meaning to get my FJ1W done and each time but forget, so I would just cancel the week. This time I thought win or loose it'll have to be played out. Thanks so much for issuing the challenge because I will get it right one of these weeks. I think getting a grade on exercising is so rad; motivation plus validation. You'll do great!
Like your list of songs:)
Good for you for working out. It really is the best.
