"Running Happy". That was the name of the mashup that I played for the final run in class this morning. DJ Chocomang created this fun, fast tempo mix that provides a great way to finish a ride. It has the energy that can elevate your mood and motivate you to really give it your all...and then some! I try to create a mood in all of my classes. A very positive, supportive, high-energy mood. Almost everyone has some negative stress in their life at one time or another. I'd like everyone to leave that at the door! I'd like everyone to remember that in a spin class, inside that group fitness room, that there are a lot of people there. The class doesn't revolve or center around one person. It is a class made up of a group of people that have so much more power than most realize. Everyone in class contributes to the energy of that class. That is why I spend so much time trying to "accentuate the positive". If everyone focuses on the work, the form, the pace, the resistance level, and on what you are trying to accomplish, then that positive energy can help everyone get closer to realizing their goals...to making a positive change. If we each were to go into class and focus on only ourselves, what has been or is currently bothering us, on the fact that we didn't get our favorite bike or that we weren't able to sit next to our best friend or our current gym crush, or that we didn't get to hear our favorite song, then that really doesn't do anyone any good and a negative energy is created that dosen't help and support the class. So, please, use your ability to focus and direct your energy that you have so abundantly in a very positive direction so that not only you benefit, but so does everyone in class. You have the power. You have the ability. You can make a change. You can make a positive difference. So let's do it! Thanks to everyone in class this morning. It was so full of all of you and your amazing energy. Thanks for that. I hope you all have an amazing day! You started it off in a great way. Keep it going! Keep that positive energy all day! Keep paying it forward! See you next time! In good health, tommy
