Yesterday was a perfect day for jogging, and, being in training for the upcoming JFK 50, I decided to take a long run/walk in and around DC.
I mapped it out with MapMyRun.com, and found out that even after a year, it still sucks. But anyway, here's the route I took.
The weather was perfect, and the Fall colors were spectacular, all along the route. I brought my camera, and took a bunch of pictures (too many). Unfortunately, I haven't spent the time to learn to use the camera very well, and the colors in the photos do not even begin to compare to the real thing. Here's the slideshow (I recommend putting it on "Fast").
Finally, I listened to a pretty good selection of songs on the way, of which I prepared a sampler. I used Audacity to create a ten-minute long mp3 that's just the first minute or so of ten different (completely different) songs. Here's the list:
Junior Reid - Big Boss Man
Geto Boys - Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta
Perez Prado - Peanut Vendor
Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene Part 2
The Belle Stars - Iko Iko
Outkast - Hey Ya
Fatboy Slim - Wonderful Night (Radio Edit)
Flo Rida - Right Round
David Bowie - Real Cool World
Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene Part 4
Fans of the movie "Office Space" will recognize a couple of songs from there.
