Extra Weekly Training Run

As I wake up to the soothing melody of a Karen Carpenter golden oldie, I have a faint, faint sensation that this morning's run, on Wednesday July 27 2005, will be a life changing event:

...Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed.

It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away.

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine.

All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry.

Just like before
It's yesterday once more.

And so feeling relaxed, and realising that I am slotting in an extra training day for the week, I arise and complete a normal, but strangely not normal, bike track session.
