The best and the worst

6km easy pace after work, change into sponsor kit then off to run leading.

5.2km very easy as run leader

11.2km total

Just checked weather for Saturday top of 12 and rain, it’s gonna be bleak out at Sandown, should run a PB just to get the hell out of the weather more quickly :roll:

The blogger Musical Challenge has been doing the rounds, he is my contribution (as drafted during a long teleconference this afternoon, in between taking the minutes)

1. Name your all time favourite song that you will never get sick of

Easy! Halleluja, the Jeff Buckley version

2. List the ten songs that would make the “sound track of your life” i.e. your other favouritist songs that are not your bestest ever

Harder to narrow down – in no particular order

True Faith – New Order
Tupelo – Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Been Caught Stealing – Jane’s Addiction
Picture of You – The Cure
Protection – Massive Attack
Smells Like Teen Spirit – Nirvana
Holiday in Cambodia – The Dead Kennedy’s
Blow up the Pokies – The Whitlams
Tangled up in Blue – Bob Dylan
Higher Ground – The Red Hot Chili Peppers version

Honorable mentions – if I was allowed to make a double CD
Epic – Faith No More
Bizare Love Triangle – New Order
Lithium – Nirvana
The Mercy Seat – Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Take on Me – Aha
Beautiful People – Marilyn Manson
Sweet Dreams – The Eurthymics
Golden Brown – The Stranglers

3. The one song that you love but are too embarrassed to admit it to anyone

Yikes

Toxic – Britney Spears :oops:

Chin almost up, the haze is starting to clear again……..

  1. I have a lot of those songs on my ipod- including Toxic- one day we will say it loud and proud, (Britney has a lot of work to do before then) but until then, this is the only time I am going to admit it in public.

  2. Your list looks so much cooler than mine … except for Britney that is. I love Eurythmics too.

  3. Hahaha – Britney! Have to admit to squawking along to that one on the radio too :oops:

    Pictures of You – fantastic choice and had I thought of it would have got an honourable mention in my list. I also love Just Like Heaven so would have been a tough decision between the two

    Take On Me made me chuckle as I was watching that episode of Family Guy the other day where Chris suddenly and extremely randomly gets sucked into the video clip – that had me in stitches :lol:
