This is the song I sang during my 6.0 mph intervals this morning at 5 am.
Today I needed a kick in the pants. I didn't feel like walking on the treadmill...again. I just wasn't into it! The only reason I was going to go through the motions again was so that I could put that damn mark on the calendar. So after 5 minutes of walking, I kicked it up a notch and added some running intervals. Now I've worked up a good sweat and burned a ton more calories than I did yesterday. I feel great! And more motivated to do it again tomorrow!

(Yesterday, when I walked 31 minutes at 3.5 mph, I burned 210 calories and only went 1.805 miles. While I've been reading that longer is better than faster for burning off fat, sometimes I just need to break a sweat and feel like I actually had to work for it!)
