A Kenny Chesney Kinda Run
Beautiful Monday in Boston! Got a few miles in during lunch and a few while heading to the train. After I got back from work, I was able to get a nice ~12.5 mile run in.
Going forward, I'll use my data science skills to make some cool graphs and analyze my performance as I get more data.
19 weeks until my race, and I'm feeling pretty excited! Loving running in Boston (except for a drunk lady calling me a 'shrimp bitch' (I'm 5'7") and telling me to 'go back to Seattle' for wearing my Seattle Sounders shirt- gotta take the good with the bad).
I shuffled through most of the songs on my Spotify today- but mainly seemed to hover around all of Kenny Chesney's work. Kenny's music does such a great job of making you want to quit your job and move to an island.
'Paint a wall, learn to dance, call your mom, buy a boat, drink a beer, sing a song, make a friend, can't we all get along'- Kenny's newest song, Get Along
The paint a wall part really gets me.
If you haven't noticed, I love country music (and Forrest Gump).
One of my favorite Forrest Gump quotes is 'Momma always says there's an awful lot you could tell about a person by their shoes. Where they're going. Where they've been', because it can apply to anything really. I think you can tell a lot about a person by the songs they listen to.
It would be so freaking cool if Spotify gave us access to our complete history of played songs. I would love to see every song I listened to, throughout all of High School, College, and my one year (so far) in the real world. The insight you'd be able to obtain is crazy- you could pinpoint every happy/sad day, every party you DJed, every roadtrip/long plane ride, all with the different genres or artists you listened to.
If Spotify already offers this, please let me know!
Have a great week, and keep running!
