Remember The In Sound from Way Out?
Also did I mention that I really hate cancer lately? My prayers are going out to all my people who are feeling the effects of cancer in their life right now. Kick that junk in the craphole.
So to honor MCA, I'm making today's post all things music. Or at least one thing music -- my unused playlist from the Nashville marathon. Remember how my ear bud kept falling out, and I wasn't feeling music in general that day. This marathon playlist is basically my most recent half marathon playlist, upgraded to full. And of course every playlist of mine includes at least one Beastie Boys song. Obligatory, for life.
Because music didn't work for me during this marathon, I felt kind of cheated from this playlist, like we didn't get our deserved time together. So I've been listening to it every day as I walk (and dream of running) around the gym track or slowly pedal the stationary bike while I catch up on reading. Or fold the million loads of laundry that come with potty training twins. These are the highlights of rest week after a marathon.
In case you are wondering, I've cut down from my first marathon playlist that was 9 hours long. This one is 4.5. Perfect.
While you're considering if you should unfriend me because I have two Katy Perry songs on my playlist, check out this interview I did with Bouffe e Bambini. This lady is amazing! I should be the one interviewing her to find out how she blogs, moms, works, and trains for marathons! Oh, and BTW NBD she lost over 100 pounds the old fashioned way -- setting reasonable goals, tweaking her diet, and exercising. Check out this post where she talks about how she met her goals, and you can see her before and after pictures. She is oozing Ikickbuttsauce. That's kind of gross how I put butt and sauce in the same word, but I'm leaving it.

Awesome playlist! I'm stealing some song ideas from you ;) I also think its impressive that you cut down your marathon list so much haha
ReplyDeleteI just had to start the playlist from scratch to cut it down. Sometimes it's easier to start over than to edit!:)
DeleteClean version of a Kanye song?! Is it instrumental? Sorry that just tickled me & yes, I live in the South.
ReplyDeleteHa! That's about what it would take to clean it up.
DeleteI LOVE seeing other people's playlists!!! I had a lot of those tunes on my Big Sur list - it is so HARD to shave down the tunes to match your race time!! I won't hold Katy Parry against you - I ran to several songs from Wicked at my daughters insistence and some LMAFO per my son's advice (Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah ... I'm sexy and I know it).
ReplyDeleteSo sad about MCA - I also always have some Beastie Boys on my running lists.
My kids need to be more involved in my playlist, though I have a feeling that My Heart's a Stereo would end up on there if they did. :)
DeleteI like the Beastie Boys. I never realized how many others were into them until Yauch died. It was pretty cool hearing all the applicable radio stations in my area playing lots of Beastie Boys in tribute.
ReplyDeleteYes, we had Beastie Boys on shuffle all weekend, though I did have to fast forward sometimes for the kids.
DeleteHa!! I think Katy Perry songs are great for runny. Enrique Iglesias is another fave!! Lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the motivation Lisa! I give you props in my first blog! :)
