lol.. I love walking and jogging and swimming as my daily exercises. Most people I see everyday just know by now I sing a lot and all the time. I cant help it. Walking gets me revved up and happy and the songs are blairing away in the headphones. I sometimes get someone telling me its so nice to see someone so happy or high fives from the other walkers and if I ever stop when I go by someone I get told "don't stop singing on my account" of course I have to take out my earphones to know what they are saying. (which I don't like)

Does anyone else do this? I know if you can sing you aren't working hard enough. Don't get me wrong I am out of breath doing it but its great for my lungs

    I have been known to break out in song or do a fist pump while running... sometimes it catches me off guard because I am just so happy when I'm in the zone, and my tunes are blaring, and the weather is nice...

    So yeah, I've done it. And make no mistake..I"m still doing a helluva workout. :-D

    warning: the song that gets me to do that most often is Signature Move by P!nk. That's MY song. :-P

    When you run, most of your running is supposed to happen at a "conversational" or "easy" pace. I am a horrible singer, but I do it all the time. It's a good check of your effort.

    P.S. You shouldn't be out of breath unless you're doing a speed workout. Slow down.

    We are twins! I always listen to music when I exercise and sing away, on my walks I match my step to the rythym and just get lost in my own world. Lol people probablly think I'm crazy, but whatever!

    Good for you! I sing too, but my running path isn't populated so nobody hears me... at least I think ;).

    One time I was shaking my *kitten* on the walking track because I thought I was alone.

    There was a couple about 30 feet behind me that I didn't see. :frown:

    As long as you were singing "I'm sexy and I know it" out loud... you're safe.

    *wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle...yeah!*

    I totally do that. There's also some Ricky Martin songs that cause my form to break down :)

    Yup, I sing when I run, tap my feet when I lift and sometimes throw in a little air drumming between sets.
