A really good idea


These guys have the right idea...I'm pretty sure they're singing Drip Drop Drippidy Drop

After watching this awesome youtube video from NorCal participants Cathy and Mark, I just some Marine cadences. There are about eighty jillion different albums of them on itunes, and all of you people training should download them IMMEDIATELY.

They are the BEST for running, and the reasons are threefold: 1. They make you feel pumped and motivated 2. They keep you in a constant rhythm (for me it was exactly 6mph) and 3. They teach you about literature, because who knew Tim O'Brien's book If I Die In A Combat Zone was a reference to a Marine cadence?

Those songs get you SO PUMPED AND MOTIVATED AND IN THE ZONE TO CRUSH WORKOUTS!!!! COACH SEAN JUST EMAILED ME AND HE USES SO MUCH CAPSLOCK AND EXCLAMATION POINTS AND IT GETS ME REALLY PUMPED FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Another fun one for you:

    Way up north where the wind blows cold,
    eskimo people ain't got no gold,
    but we gotta feed our women,
    so we gotta make our livin,
    killing the baby seals

    one night i was out a walkin,
    underneath those northern lights,
    thought i heard a baby squawkin,
    somewhere over to my right,
    walked right up and kicked his head in,
    he let out a mighty squeal,
    that is how we make our living,
    kiling the baby seals.
