  1. Imo those that do so compromise to some measure their personal
    experience of running. I would never re-route, remove or blunt one of
    my senses away from the endeavor. When I see blind runners I often
    wonder if I am hearing all they are. Here's one for the ipod crowd.

  2. Sad event.
    I agree, music for running outside not necessary.

  3. I think visually impaired runners
    pay more attention to gravity
    and proprioceptive senses that purely
    audio sense.

    Just a guess, based on my own experience.

  4. Lance is never creepier than when he's giving us his opinions.

    I'm guessing that if he DID listen to music while jogging, it would be
    the soundtrack to an Andrew Lloyd Weber musical, or Celine's Greatest
    Hits.

  5. I love to listen to great classical music. I despise the stuff they
    play in the gym. If you want upbeat go with Mozart.

    I also like big band. A really great CD is to find Frank Sinatra with
    Count Basie. Until I heard that, I thought of Sinatra as a schmaltzy
    singer. However, put him with the Count it amazed me.

    Any Basic CDs are great. The whole band was a rhythm section. They
    really kick.

    Only a world class [censored] such as yourself would post this.

    I thought it was Yanni LIVE.

  8. Agree if one were running new trails in Yosemite or Pike. However, if
    on familiar routes around town or school tracks, upbeat music helps
    breaking up the monotonous foot falls. Now, e-books on Quantum
    Mechanics or String Theory is not advised as they suck up too much
    energy firing those neurons.

    I don't agree. Lance is creepy no matter what or when.

    Music and running don't mix for me. I enjoy the sights and sound of
    real life. Yesterday as I was jogging I passed a young girl wearing an
    "I've Got The [censored] So I Make The Rules" sweatshirt. She muttered
    something about an "old F--- 'er jogging." Life is beautiful. Spring is
    in the air.

    That happened to me too! Did you get kicked in teeth while checking,
    too? Is it me, or shouldn't be allowed to check it? I mean THEY are
    bringing it up, and in the name of truthfullness, I think we should be
    allowed to take a peek.

    I run on the beach and watch the sunrise, or run the other way over the
    causeways. It is as beautiful a sight as one can imagine. I also love
    to stop and take pictures of tourists taking pictures of their children,
    saying "do you want to get in the picture".

    However, I do indeed love listening to music. On Sunday mornings NPR
    from Fort Piece has a special on Organ Music, with discussion on the
    beautiful old organs.

    I also listen to great classical and jazz.

    In addition, I have completed many books on tape.

    It's called multi-tasking.

    The only time I don't do that is when I'm racing. Following my car
    accident that's been a while, but I'll be back!

    It's called having a mind. You win the golden cheeks award. I doubt
    you could understand Basie music. Unlike you, not only can I listen, I
    play in an 18 piece Jazz band, worked my way through college as a
    musician, and even played professionally in local orchestras. And yes,
    I've also played in rock and country rock bands, though I don't like the
    volume.

    Those who do, do, those who can't, are you.

    My god man, if you were anymore gay, we'd get you a room in
    Provincetown.
