I think most people would prefer to listen to some music that motivates them while exercising but I like having a good engrossing book on audio that I can get lost in while out for a hike or a walk. One hour of uninterrupted listening and getting my steps in for the day! Perfect, right?
The next few months I will be training for a half marathon and since I will be starting off slow with some walk/runs first, my Audible account is going to have to be kept full of really good books. I love how listening to a book helps me get through my walks/hikes/runs with less focus on distance, speed and discomfort. I just go.
Thanks, Joy for this great weekly event. What a great way to share our exercise goals and successes with other readers!
You go on that! Wow. That is something I didn't remember to think of, listening to an audiobook while running, but I don't know if that will sustain me. I do like my beats. It's me following you on Spotify, BTW. I don't know how to add a profile pic on my account. Tried a few times and gave up.
Happy to have you! Training for a half marathon is very exciting -- good luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Hoping to not injure myself this time. :)
