Dude, you're my hero. Srsly, without any music I think I'd make it about three blocks.
But for reals, I got a 1 gig ipod nano on ebay for $30 shipped and everything. It took me like an hour of looking to find it.
Totally worth it.
That is awesome, 6 miles! I got a Coby Mp3 player free for taking Harris Poll surveys over the years. I would recommend them. Mine has lasted for awhile and works great. It is about the size of a jumpdrive, and I bought a nice carrier for it that straps to my bicep. The prices are very affordable. It looks like Amazon offers the 4 gig for 35.00 and the 1 gig for 21.00 (search "coby mp3") at Amazon.com
I find that running inside or using an eliptical machine, I need music. Right now I am mainly listening to Coldplay's newest album. If I am running outside, I usually don't need music, because I get into the scenery and all that (natural scenery that is, being out in nature...so get your mind out of the gutter).
I too have been encouraged by your progress and am 3 weeks in to runing 2 or 3 times a week but only making 6/10ths of a mile. Baby Steps. See you at Holiness & Hops or vice versa.
