Hello. Meet iPpy McSkinny.
He is my iPod touch, and I love him so. Without iPpy, hundreds of exercise hours wouldn’t happen. I physically can’t make myself work out if I don’t have music blaring in my ears. I don’t know what’s up with that, but at the rate I’m going, not only will I be skinny, but I’ll be half deaf as well.
So, I spend HOURS upon hours cultivating the perfect workout playlist. It’s not easy, you know. Sometimes I’ll be out running (I never thought I’d type that sentence) and a song comes on, and I think, “Oh, no, this doesn’t work.” And I skip to the next song
And iPpy and I come home and I delete said song from the “gym” playlist. It’s an ongoing, process, really.
So, what songs HAVE made it onto (and survived on) the workout playlist? Read on, my friends.
