18 days to go!

Let the countdown begin...Today offically marks 18 days (random, I know, but I couldn't get my act together to post on monday @ 20 days) until Kelly and I START our marathon TRAINING!  We are both super excited to start the guantlet training!

For my birthday, my parents got me the new MotoACTV, which has become my new favorite obsession!  It's a spin on the Garmin GPS training watches and is the ultimate training/fitness tool.  I knew for the Marathon that I would need a device like this and the MotoACTV has answered all of my prayers.

It has the typical GPS tracker, so it tracks and stores your runs - you can sync it with your computer for an online log of your workouts.  It works for running, biking, golfing, the elliptical, and will track your heart rate, log running, walking and cycling statistics, and packs GPS to track your exercise routes.

It also is like an iPod shuffle and stores your entire iTunes library - BUT THERE'S MORE...it tracks your performance and creates "Fitness Playlists" which are a compilation of the songs that you run the FASTEST to!  So if you need that extra boost on a hard run, choose that option for the best booty shakin songs that get your legs moving at lightning speed.

My current Fitness Playlist:
1) Summer of 69 Remix - DJ Otis
2) Wanted - Jessie James
3) Be With You - Akon
4) Body Language - Jessie McCartney
5) See You Again - Mylie Cyrus
6) Part of Me - Katy Perry
7) Dance Again - Jennifer Lopez ft. Pitbull
8) Black or White - Michael Jackson
9) Blame It Remix - Jamie Foxx
10) Candyman - Aqua

Clearly, my MotoACTV knows me well, as can be seen in #10.  Aqua will forever hold a special place in my heart...I must get Barbie Girl on there.  I have only tracked about 6 workouts on this so far, I assume the playlist will either GROW or change with the more workouts I do...will keep ya posted!
