Where do you find all this music? iTunes? I need to add some more good music to my playlist!

You could start a website and charge for this stuff. Retire earlier... not a bad idea chic.

You are a music DIVA.

Thanks guys! I get my tracks from all sorts of sources and I pale in comparison to some of my comrades. These particular tracks came from beatport.com.

Ok...I do spin at least once a week. My wife and I will spin tonight...I use is as a recovery day.

The workout looks good but I don't have a clue what any of that means...and for music...just once I would love for a spin instructor to have all angst ridden music...Metallica, AC/DC, Scorpions....OzzY......you get the drift...

you should seriously charge for this stuff.

Shannon,

I like the different twist you gave it with starting with the standing climb the second round, and surging while seated. Makes for two great profiles!

Steve sent me some of these songs - am really enjoying them, esp Deadmau and The Presets - thanks so much for finding them and introducing us to them! Sanctuary by Origene is one of my longtime favorites. That's also available on Emusic - can get it as a free d/l. For those who wonder how to expand their music libraries (for very little, or even free) here's some tips: http://funhogspins.blogspot.com/2009/03/how-to-greatly-expand-your-music.html

Keep up the great work girlfriend! Your students must LOVE you!

hugs,

Jennifer

Nice workout, sister!

Sometimes, your posts read like some sort of computer code!

Shannon said...

Glaven~ Bro...code is sometimes better than constantly talking about your n*ts*ack! LOL
