I’m Patti and Hannah is my co-worker and my gym “life partner” for over a year now. I do have to claim that the tri started as part of my year 30 meltdown and I’m good at recruiting (see Hannah’s first post -I’m #6). I’m thrilled that she has let me be a guest contributor to this awesome blog, a choice she may later regret, but until that day…here we go!
I was thinking the other day about how I need to start to wean myself of my iPod as they are no-no’s on most road races and definitely a no for the tri. As Hannie and I have discussed running for us is such a mental game. I’m sure I can always run more that I think- so the iPod is a must have.
So until I absolutely have to quit you IPod…I’ve got some new items for you. Since I love themes, I was working on “tri” songs – one somewhat workable mix starts with the following:
Cannonball – The Breeders (“crash on the last splash”)
Bicycle – Queen (“I love to ride my bicycle”)
Running on Empty – Jackson Browne (and well, there just may be nothing left when I get to this point)
So I want to hear from you, give me your best swim/bike/run song list or whatever your inspiration is for that last mile!

Alive Again, Chicago, also Chicago's "Stronger every day". They make you feel you can do anything, and keep going! Also, Devil with the Blue Dress, and Mony-Mony by Tommy James. These are old songs, but they really rock when you're trying to keep moving.
