chariots of fire

Today I did 11km in total in the gym, and burnt 325 calories. 8 km in 15 minutes on the exercise bike, 2 km in 15 minutes on the cross-trainer, and 1km in 5 minutes on the rowing machine. A personal best so far. While watching the heart-rate counter on the machines, I tend to think of the film Gattaca... And during the cool-down part, I tend to hum the music from Chariots of Fire in my head, as it is a nice slow rhythm to move to.

If you've seen and liked the film it is im-sodding-possible to do time on a running machine without hearing the music from Chariots of Fire (esp as one of the gyms at Edinb Uni is the Eric Liddell fitness training centre).
