I broke down and busted out the Christmas music this morning.  I just felt like something different to run to.  So, I put my ipod on the Christmas music station.  The music was fun.  The dj's however are far too perky for 5:30 a.m.   I'll probably return to AC/DC and Eminem tomorrow.  

I ran my Costco loop extended to 6200 S, and back along the canal road.  It was so warm this morning.  I was shedding layers the entire run.  I'm still dressing like it's normal Utah November weather.  7:31 pace.  The 4 miles uphill into the wind slowed me down.

Yes, Allie, I have a very eclectic taste in music.

Have you heard the Nat King Cole/Eminem remix of Unforgettable? "Unforgettable....that's what you [bleep bleep bleep] are..."

Ha ha ha! I think I would actually listen to that!
