[MARATHON BLOG 15] Running with a partner, and a wonderful song.
I did a small warm-up run today and was joined by this guy:
I then set off on my own for a three-mile run. I wanted to take it easy being as I had just run 7.5 miles the day before (and my muscles were sore), but also to be sure to get a good workout in and stay in business.
As I ran, the most beautiful song came up on my Apple Music Library shuffled playlist.
King Saul fell on his sword when it all went wrong
And Joseph's brothers sold him down the river for a song
And Sonny Liston rubbed some tiger balm into his glove
Some things you do for money
And some you do for love, love, love
Raskolnikov felt sick, but he couldn't say why
When he saw his face reflected in his victim's twinkling eye
Some things you'll do for money and some you'll do for fun
But the things you do for love
Are going to come back to you one by one
Love, love is going to lead you by the hand
Into a white and soundless place
Now we see things as in a mirror dimly
Then we shall see each other face to face
And way out in Seattle, young Kurt Cobain
Snuck out to the greenhouse, put a bullet in his brain
Snakes in the grass beneath our feet, rain in the clouds above
Some moments last forever
But some flare out with love, love, love
"Love Love Love"
~The Mountain Goats

Whatchout! That little t-rex is gonna catch you before too long!!!
Hahaha! Yes!!!
its nice to run everyday, is there a big difference between gym and outdoor running?
I have never really run in a gym very much, so I don't really know. Personally, I need the scenery. The gym environment is too boring and repetitive for my taste!
