Make You Better 243

Inspiration: A 60 minute class today calls for a fresh 60 minute playlist! Also this weekend…the first weekend of the 2015 installment of LaughFest, an annual event in the greater Grand Rapids area. This year is the fifth time comedians have taken over the city for 10 days of this “seriously funny” event. Last night we did our part and saw Costaki Economopoulos…a great show, and has me primed for more laughs before the event closes in a week. LaughFest is a fundraising tribute to Gilda Radner and the organization Gilda’s Club, providing free emotional healthcare to children, adults, families, and friends on any kind of cancer journey or those grieving the death of someone in their life due to any cause.

Back to the playlist…
The warm up/opener is a track I downloaded free on iTunes a couple months ago (The Decemberists…in December), check out the YouTube video. A had an (Uber) rider recommendation recently for Phish, and like their single Devotion To A Dream for this ride. The Deadmau5 and Marilyn Manson tracks make for a great backdrop on a couple of intense hill climbs. A Lady Gaga favorite, Gypsy is on REPEAT for a killer sprint to the cool down! (But check out every track…they’re all perfect for the ride!)

Remember to LAUGH a little on your journey to be BETTER!
