Workout Drama

Planned Workout: 20 min of intervals (3.5/5.5MPH) Arm Circuit & Leg Circuit

Actual Workout: 20 min intervals; Arm Circuit

Ok, so today's workout was pretty good...now for the dramatic part (not really, but hey, it makes it fun!)

So there I was staring that was treadmill down.  We have a love/hate relationship.  Today I swear it was taunting me.  "Where were you yesterday? " I was going to show it...
I am doing my intervals as planned .....and everything was going to good .... until I hit the ten minute mark. I could feel myself breathing way too hard after being at 3.5 for 65 seconds to go back up, so I skipped an interval at my higher speed.  Then it happened - the voice in my head (phones) said "ten minutes remaining" AND 'Just Dance' by Gaga came on...and BAM! I was gonna push through it.  I was almost sorry when the treadmill slowed down.   Amazing what a simple song can do.  Anyone else have a "power song"?
