Having been mightily impressed by my fellow retro runner yesterday at the Barbican, I went out this morning for my run. No particular place to go, no particular distance in mind, just a run.
And evidently I channelled my inner Razouski this morning, because I just did my first 5k under 30 minutes. Yup under 30 minutes... Yahoo.
My virtually new running socks became a casualty of the record, but this morning I got an early Christmas present, a new Personal Best, yes it was a downhill and flat run, but still, I'm chuffed to bits.
So thank you fellow retro runner, you're right, powered by cakes seems to work!
I thought of you lot and your retro soundtracks today as I ran with a fabulously retro playlist this morning and it was a corker. Some good ones for running were Iggy Pop's The Passenger, Run DMC & Aerosmith's Walk this Way, and Harder than you Think by Public Enemy. Oh and Ini Kamoze's Here Comes the Hotstepper. I was mostly about old skool rap this morning!
What a fantastic run, well done for breaking the 30 minute barrier. The playlist has some corkers on it - I love the Peter Gabriel and will need to import that into my next playlist. Ditto to Petula Clark and Gladys Knight and the Pips. Sorry to hear about your sock, but at least you didn't get blisters.
I hope you found something tasty to celebrate your running victory. 🥂
