What's On Your Playlist?

Last week, Melody completed her first triathlon, Top Gun down in Ft DeSoto. Congratulations Melody! She swam, biked, and ran her way to the finish line with a smile on her face.

Melody Tri Collage

During Melody’s training for the triathlon, her and I ran together several times and one of the many things we talked about was music playlists.

To listen or not?

I haven’t run with music in quite awhile but I remember when I did, my playlist was all over the place. Melody and I are clearly meant to be friends because her playlist is also all over the place. Some new, some old, some country, some rock. It’s a little bit of everything. Here is Melody’s current playlist….
