T-9 NH/ME Double - Getting puffed up on Eminem

If you want to help me make through this, comment, email, FB me and tell me I can't do it, tell me its a stupid idea, tell me its a waste of time... nothing motivates me more than doubters and skeptics.

I was so fired up after watching this youtube vid that I had to find the lyrics to Eminem's 'Till I Collapse'... its going into the playlist...
here are some highlights:


'Cause sometimes you feel tired,
feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse.

Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out - am I high? Perhaps
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.
Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out and my high burn out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.

Until the roof
The roof comes off
Until my legs
give out from underneath me

I will not fall,
I will stand tall,
Feels like no one could beat me.

Everyday... (added to playlist)

...is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer

I've been swimming in a sea of anarchy
I've been living on coffee and nicotine
I've been wondering if all the things I've seen
Were ever real, were ever really happening

Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer

Playlist

I know that some purists hate the very idea of running with music. Some consider it an assist and some consider it an impairment to the experience. I fully respect these views. But, I think of music as an essential element to my running. My iPod and I together on 99% of my runs. I do take the extra precautions when running w/ headphones. Hug the right shoulder and turn the sound down so that I can still hear some of the ambient noise. Safety first!

What better way to enjoy the miles with your own soundtrack? Here is a sampling from my race soundtrack entitled “no limits”:

Rocket Man Elton John
Empire State of Mind Jay-Z
Cinderella Man Eminem
NY State of Mind Nas
I Go To Work Kool Moe Dee
Yeah! Usher
Paid in Full Eric B & Rakim
Moment of Clarity Jay-Z
Hit the Road Jack Ray Charles
Run this Town Jay-Z
Unbelievable Notorious BIG
Eye of the Tiger (I know its corny, but I love it)
