I've had a ridiculously good morning. I thought you should know someone has.
#RunBore Shorter run but I got to 9.9kmph which I normally don't. Top running tune- Yes Sir, I Can Boogie by Baccara, a paean to unbridled female desire with a pinch from Don't Leave Me This Way with extra moans at the top.

#RunBore 15km on the treadmill. Garmin badge in the bag. No local colour.

#RunBore Ran 15k because Mr Garmin has gamefield my life and I get 2 virtual badges with a meaningless value of 5 points for doing that today. Today's running banger- Bob Dylan's Hurricane. Rock violin, very long, righteously angry and this is it after it was run by lawyers. youtu.be/bpZvg_FjL3Q?...

#RunBore Today's absolute spirit lifter was the 12" version of Party Fears Two by The Associates.

Even when you're running it's impossible to completely to stop your arms rising up melodramatically as Billy cries "Awaaake me!" and anyone who saw me definitely shouldn't mock.

#RunBore 8.5 km run. Good feeling induced. Chafing fair to moderate. Bearable.

#RunBore Today's run list banger is another from the "Keep going, you fool!" end of it where the tracks get progressively looooonger and I just have to keep going. Julian Cope has a Moonage Wetdream in Safesurfer. Few lyrics bring me more joy than "idiot son of Donkey Kong". youtu.be/lu5lq8cONMQ?...

#RunBore 15km run. I am knackered. Top running list banger was this one (for cool down period with mild euphoria) indie cinema's top ice cream van chime anthem since Badlands. youtu.be/7BWoQJbPkwQ?...

#RunBore Anyway today's top running soundtrack platter is the sexiest song on the whole flipping list.
youtu.be/ZKIWYddocpA?...

#RunBore Today's random running list banger is the greatest TV theme ever not to be written by Ron Grainer or Edwin Astley. Denis King's 'Galloping Home', the Ralph Vaughan Williams' Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis of stirring kids' telly adventure soundtracks. youtu.be/8u5NgC4lZ8s?...
A ha!

#RunBore Today's uplifting running track obviously had to be the glorious Non Stop Ecstatic Dancing version of Memorabilia. Am I the only dreary nerd who thinks there's a massive undeclared sample of Fanfare For The Common Man towards the end? I may well be.

#RunBore Today's running banger is a short one from To Hell with Burgundy, an overlooked 80s Factory signing that doesn't fit its dance and drukz narrative.
Anyway, this is dead good and feels like a Sunday School outing letting its hair down and getting a bit witchy folky. youtu.be/6E2S8VEtaC4?...

YOU: Wow, pretty intense workout, Ian! All those machines and then 7.23km on the treadmill.
ME: Thanks.
YOU: What banging, euphoric tunes did you use to motivate that sensational demonstration of physical and mental fortitude?
ME: Andrew Hickey talking about Leonard Cohen.
YOU: Bloody Goth.
#RunBore

Just ran 10km on a machine going nowhere because my watch and laptop said they'd give me a virtual badge worth 2 meaningless points that can help me measure my fitness progress if I did that today. I have gamefied my life and I am winning at it. #RunBore

#RunBore I had a later than planned 8.6km run yesterday and today my body is telling me I didn't hydrate enough in a quite despicable way.
