Running with Steve and Gaga

It isn't often you can put the following together - Steve Runner and Lady Gaga. In fact this may be the only time. My 40 minute run yesterday was a combination of running with Phedippidations and Lady Gaga. The first 30 I listened to Steve's most recent podcast. The last 10 minutes - solid Lady Gag.

There is something very comforting about running with Steve Runner. He is the friend you want to run with. He talks, you listen and run. It's all good. The recent podcast has Steve talking about his earlier days. It really is like running with a friend.

Lady Gaga helped me get through the last 10 minutes of the run when I want to ramp it up a bit. Her new single "Born This Way" is a powerful anthem of empowerment for the LGBT community. I'm sure the people on the various treadmills wondered who the odd guy lip syncing was. I didn't care. I got through the run.

In the 40 minutes I ran 3.18 miles - I call that a decent run.

Today cross training is the order of the day.
