OK baby lets go dancing

[ju-ju-]

It's very nearly my 3 year runniversary. I have been trying for the last year to work on my speed alongside my marathon training.

I watched American Hussle at the weekend and I love it... The clothes, music, vibe etc and I particularly love the disco scene. See clip:

m.youtube.com/watch?v=buCLP...(Not working as expected?)

So I downloaded the disco mix of, ' I feel love,' this morning and had it on a loop. It was fabulous, I did some boogie moves and it really powered me on. As a result I got two new PB's... I am soooooooooo made up. Pic is me in elated mood just after I finished.

5k: 26.54

1 mile: 8.23

Just goes to show the effect music can have...

Happy panthering

Juicyju

See if you can find the Patrick Cowley Mega-mix of IFL. 15 and a half minutes of disco oblivion.

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Rignold]

Oh wow I must find it... I so need to go out dancing too. I wonder if it's on iTunes?? I need at least 5 hours of tracks for Brighton !!!!

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Rignold]

Found him... I love Menergy!!!

[Rignold in reply to ju-ju-]

and Do you Wanna Funk.

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Rignold]

Just downloaded that too... Can't wait to have them all on a rol for Bath Half on Sunday. I think I'd better wear disco running stuff too?

[goonkeepgoing Graduate]

Yay - well done! Very speedy

My recent PBs were also music fuelled so I agree totally.

I better get me some disco!!!!!

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to goonkeepgoing]

Disco is the way to go for PB's, it's the fast beat!!

[goonkeepgoing Graduate in reply to ju-ju-]

I just bought "100 Disco Hits"!

Honestly, this running malarkey makes you do some odd things

That's more the speed of a cheetah than a panther

Superb time juicy

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Thanks Rob

[Anaverageman Graduate]

Well done... You disco diva xx but hold on a second... fluorescent... lycra.. headband... aren't you ALREADY wearing '80's disco gear' when you are out running? Put on some ' leg warmers' and you have the full set?

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Anaverageman]

Just need the hot pants!!

[Anaverageman Graduate in reply to ju-ju-]

Well there's always a lot of 'hot panting' when I run... You can borrow some of mine...

[Sandraj39 Graduate]

Fantastic times! Getting the right music really helps I think! Good luck with the Bath half too!🙂

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Sandraj39]

Thankyou, I'm really quite nervous!!

[Hidden]

Google blue man group and have a listen to venus hum version of I feel love. You might go even faster

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Hidden]

They are hilarious ( and a bit scary looking!!) and very fast beat!!! 🤖

[John_W Graduate]

Congrats on the PB JJ - loving the music choice

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to John_W]

Thankyou, great music it so is!!!

[Irishprincess Graduate]

Fab times JJ! Brilliant. I use to love discos and this song just brings it all back! The other one that always got me on the dance floor is "Can you feel it". Oooh I must add these to my playlist! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to Irishprincess]

Me too, and ooooh yes I'll get that too ready for Bath!!

[GoogleMe Graduate]

I wonder if that's why I'm slow, listening to folk chatting about their wheelchairs or bipolar on BBC Ouch or Gardener's Question Time or Infinite Monkey Cage.. or Arvo Pårt?

Lovely post!

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to GoogleMe]

That's had me in stitches, I can't really imagine running listening to Bob Flowerdew talking about his pansies!!!!

[redkelly Graduate]

I'm huge disco fan, will definitely download some Donna Summer, even better I have tickets to see Earth Wind and Fire in July at the O2, Boogie Wonderland ticks all my boxes !!!!!
