The Highway to Hell Is the Road to Paradise City ? Running Thoughts and Music Notes
Went out for a five-miler today. First time in a long time. I am definitely not in great shape currently, and I huffed and puffed and struggled. Music I’ve been jamming to across the last few months when I have gotten out includes The Smiths, Phoenix, various ambient and deep house tunes, AC/DC, and other…
