New Year's Resolution - Exercise those Records!

Thanks to the History Detectives broadcast last autumn, I had the good fortune of being interviewed on WNYC;s Soundcheck on January 6, as part of their week-long examination of exercising - one of the more popular New Years' resolutions out there.  The archives here includes what is purported to be a more extensive accumulation of early exercise records than can be found at the Library of Congress, which is a rather sad statement of my life in the Surreal City.  In any case, they were kind enough to provide me with a link, so I share it below!

Now the task is to covert more than these few clips to complete mp3s.... hmmm... using digital technology to retain obsolete information from obscure documentation.  Isn't that what the internet is all about?!
