    I'm sort of random.

    I cannot have a good workout without
    1.5 litres of water handy
    my iPod blaring obscenely loud
    and a piece of minty gum.


    The gum just keeps my energy up I guess.

    IPod and Nike+ program!!! I almost cried when I thought I lost my IPod.

    Oh and cute workout clothes. When I started working out it was all baggy and black. Now I need something that makes me feel pretty (even if my face turns bright red and my hair turns into a sweaty birds nest).

    I am considering a Heart Rate Monitor but I am not sure what they are used for and which ones are good. I would like one that is waterproof as I like swimming and watersports. Any suggestions?

    My running shoes.

    A headband to keep my bangs out of my eyes.

    Technical workout clothes. I don't mind sweating, but I don't want to feel it! I go much longer if I'm comfortable.

    An excellent sports bra.

    I could not live without my bowflex selecttech weights now, it makes all the difference in convenience and being able to lift more. I even scored a great deal on them on craigslist!

    Feel free to "friend" me everyone for daily inspiration! ;) Colleen in Seattle

    My iPhone with Runkeeper (http://runkeeper.com/user/secretkristoffer/profile) (and MFP). Started walking two months ago and the first day I walked 3km and had a really hard time doing it. Now I walk 10km four times a week, and Runkeeper made everything fun!

    I know exactly how you feel I have to workout in my old navy yoga pants and a black wife beater... I have to look semi cute for some reason. It just motivates me. I dont go with my hair done and make-up but I at least need somthing flattering.. Ans the Ipod is a must there have been times I almost cried when I thought i lost it!! Esp bc I have playlists for my workouts!

    What benefits come from using an interval timer? Or I guess I'm asking how you use one, really.
