My walking buddies weren't out this morning. I jogged on a jogger tramp. I was bored stiff and didn't do the 35 mins that I wanted. Gave in at 30mins.
I have decided that I need entertainment!!
What do you use?? Is it a radio, TV, or Book??? If I am walking I can use the nature and scennery as entertainment, but when I am stuck in one place. IT was boring!!! I was looking out but the same ole same ole. I just keep staring at the timer!!!
So what is it ladies???

If I'm walking I also just use nature and scenery as entertainment... but if I'm on a treadmll I usually use my radio/headphones... and I try to find music that goes with my pace... 8o The time goes SO much faster though when you have someone to walk with... so I'd prefer walking with somebody else than anything.
Diane... :wave:
My treadmill is in front of the tv in our playroom. I usually watch Rosie or Regis and Kelly and the time flies.

Outside I have no problem. On the indoor bike I watch tv or read. :)
outdoors dh and I have these great talks.....very cool....and if I am alone out there...just me and nature....
in the house I usually watch tv...mostly watch tapes of the stuff from the night before....LOL...ie.. Friends....and sometimes I tape Oprah so that helps....music is good too, but I prefer tapes or CD....I have listened to Dr. Laura....but it has too many commercials....:lol:
more info than you wanted huh....;)

I like to be entertained too. The treadmill is in front of the tv, so I try to plan my treadmill time when Rosie or Trading Spaces is on.
When I walk outside, I listen to prerecorded tapes that I have made that only have face paced music...it helps to motivate my pace

Karla - you mentioned reading on a bike. Is it a recumbent bike or a traditional upright? My sis has a recumbent and reads but I never could get the knack of it with my upright. I'm thinking of getting a recumbent. Just because I read sooooo much.
