The Slaying of Selena - Queen of Tejano music

Hey, friend, 

Thank you for joining me for Running Scared with Coach Christine. I'm a Level 2 RRCA and Galloway certified coach,  but more importantly, I'm someone that knows it's so much easier to get out for your run or walk when you have something to look forward to that helps with motivation. 

So if you are like me and are a runner or walker that enjoys hearing a true crime case or spooky tale, then welcome! You have found your corner of the internet. 

Today for the kick-off of National Hispanic Heritage Month, I am paying homage to the Queen of Tejano music and much beloved by the entire Latinx community, Selena Quintanilla Pérez.

Selena was well on her way to becoming a mega-star on the U.S. pop charts, her life was cut tragically short by an obsessed fan, proving that the line between love and hate is precariously thin. 

This true crime coach cast is a solid endurance-building conversation-paced run, but since we will be learning about Selena a pop princess in her own right, we will add in a 30-second "pop quiz" every 5 minutes to make sure you are tuning in and flexing that brain with memory recall.

I'll tell you the case and story during our 5-minute conversation paced segments and then ask you a question. You choose your answer and do the corresponding exercise to that option!

For :30 seconds of Pop Power Quiz 
Option 1 - Power Skips 
Option 2 - Power Pace Pickup
Option 3 - Jumping Jacks
