Rule #1: Cardio! Part II

On that note, Tatiana obviously wore her 5-pound vest to prove a point to our female trainees but even she threw me a slight glare before we started running.

The first few minutes were just all of us enjoying the music blasting through the speakers, but almost half of the participants almost tripped on their feet when the music abruptly changed from hip-hop to metal at the 5-minute mark.

First of all, there wasn't anything wrong with the two genres but music played a very important role in one's training regimen.

All sorts of people had different tastes in this regard because I knew people who'd listen to classical music while lifting heavy weights—and even now, a select few were definitely enjoying the switch-up while the ones that were doing well definitely staggered.

But yeah, this was a small sub-level of difficulty in this challenge, but Tatiana and I were racing as to who gets the farthest distance traveled in this 30-minute run.
