 Another hot one today.  Cut the front yard grass.  The backyard has so much shade, bare spots, and moss there was no need to cut it.  Sweat a lot.  Decided to go to the gym for 6 on the treadmill, then pick the kids up from school.  My wife had a meeting tonight so my PM run was after 9 o'clock.

Treadmill - 6 miles - 45:00 (7:30 avg.)

Tonight's run was a fun one.  And I rarely have a run that I consider fun.  First of all I took it very easy.  I should do that much more often.  And second there was a live concert in town tonight.  It was close to wrapping up but I could hear it very well for my entire run as it echoed around.  When I first started there was a medley of slow songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's.  Then it was two songs back to back from Morris Day and The Time, Jungle Love and The Bird.

 

 My jungle love, yeah
I think I wanna know ya (know ya)
Jungle love
Girl, I'd love 2 show ya (show ya)

Oh-wee-oh-wee-oh


What time is it?

Alright, y'all got 10 seconds 2 get 2 the dance floor
And...

Wawk!

America, have U heard?
I got a brand new dance and it's called "The Bird"
U don't need no finesse or no personality
U just need 2 arms and an attitude and everybody sing with me
Come on now!

Wawk! Hallelujah! Whoa!


Followed up by "Shout", the version from "Animal House."  On the "little bit louder now" parts, I ran a little bit faster now, which showed on my last mile.
