Girl, You Really Got Me Running

6.3 km 34:51

ick.

There was also a discarded thong near the running trail. It looked a little worse for wear.

double ick.

Lessons learned:

1. Good songs to run to
1. Gotta Get Up From Here (good steady beat)
2. Bad Moon Rising (a bit slow but steady)
3. Don't Fear the Reaper (hmm, this was a bit slow too, maybe that explains my time. Also, did they really need that uumlaat over the 'O' in Blue Oyster Cult?)
   
4. Tubthumping ('I get knocked down, but I get up again' - good thought for running. I didn't get knocked down though. Almost got pegged by a bird, butI don't think that counts.)
   
5. Graceland (good beat for a running pace)
   
6. You're The One That I Want & Hand Jive (upbeat, cheerful, plus, did you know that Olivia Newton-John had to be sewn into those leather pants at the end of the movie? This was in the land before spandex. That knowledge doesn't help me run faster, but it is a good ponderable. Personally, I thought she was more attractive before the end of the movie, but hey, what do I know?)
   
2. Bad songs to run to
1. Oh L'Amour (Great song. Too slow.)
   
2. Razzle Dazzle (See above - oddly enough 'We Both Reached For The Gun,' which the Jayfish claimed he used to be able to sing, works a little better as a run song, but only if you don't try to sing it while you run

I leave you with the lyrical genius of Billy Idol and my personal reaction: "What the Hell?"
