In the past, I have sometimes been quite manic about how soon I could complete my annual playlist runs. It's usually some time in April. In the year 2012 I was training for a marathon and finished in early March.
They get longer every year, of course. That year I was trying to complete only 45 playlists. Also, this year I was running long distances with Chris on Sundays, without listening to music. And that was just fine, thank you. That's been very good, in fact.
The most significant thing about this year's playlist is that every single song on it was released since January 1, 2018. And they're really good songs, too. And not a short list, either.
Distance: 4 miles
Route: Cain Park Loop
Temperature: 63°
Climate: overcast & cool - perfect
Mood: angsty
Thing is, the year runs are like, part of an agenda. Now I don't know what the hell to listen to.
Stretches: yes
Wanted to get out on Friday morning, but it was in the mid-40s. Really, no more cold runs. Today was just great, a light, brisk run before the hot weather sets in for a while.
God, that was a fine playlist. So that part of the year is going well. Yay, popular music.
