Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,
On my run this morning, I decided to do something a little different. Instead of listening to music on my iPod, I listened to a Podcast. Thank you Elizabeth for turning me on to it.
There are hundreds of different Podcasts to choose from like Catholic Answers (my pick for the day), NPR's Fresh Air and Science Friday, The Diane Rehm Show, Car Talk, etc. It's a great way to learn something or have a laugh while you exercise. It's also a good way to keep track of time since the programs are generally an hour long depending on what it is.
You can even "poddercise"! There are yoga video podcasts, audio pilates podcasts, treadmill podcasts, and the list goes on. It's a way for you to break the monotony of your workout or just try something new.
I encourage you to explore the world of podcasts and see what is out there for you. You might find yourself listening to a new work out mix and learning something new along the way.
In health,
Lauren
PS: Podcasts are free! What a joy!
For those who are interested, I also recommend news podcasts, which are great ways to keep up with world or US affairs on the go. The New York Times and the BBC both have a great collection of different-themed podcasts.
