we got the beat

I am so easily realizing the power of vitamin D. The healing, the motivation, the energy it deposits into every crevice of our bodies. If you stop to think about it the sun is really quite a powerful tool to empower us. It is held steady for one of the sole reasons I continue to keep lacing my shoes up for those runs as they continue to increase in mileage.

Another motivation is my trusty little purple ipod filled with angry Pink lyrics, female empowerment Beyonce beats and straight up b*tch you messed with the wrong person Rihanna tunes. (Sorry for the profanity, it had to be said to stress the profound badass-ness of Rihanna).

Wednesdays's run was capped off with a glorious body s p r a w l in the front yard. I layed on my back, breathing heavy, grass to skin, tunes still blaring, and stared up into the sky. The sun cinged my cheeks and it felt so good.

Here are some of my Keep You Going must-haves:

If I Were A Boy- Beyonce
Meet Me Halfway- Black Eyed Peas
Nothin' On You- B.o.B. featuring Bruno Mars (unbelievable)
Baby- Justin Bieber (seriously)
Who Knew- Pink
Rehab- Rihanna
All The Right Moves- One Republic
Say Aah- Trey Songz
Young Forever- Jay Z
Sweet Disposition- The Temper Trap (it is slower but great for mid-mileage pacing)
The Reeling- Passion Pit
Sweetest Girl- Wyclef
