Aaaaaaah, wonderful wonderful Compeed! All the forums said it's brilliant at soothing sore blisters, that it's a 'second skin' and they are so right! I think the chances of running this Sunday are starting to look better baby; not counting the Easter chicks yet, but you know what they say.....where there's Compeed, there's hope!
The usual today; long morning commute to work, long day at work, and now lying in bed feeling a little frazzled (still not brave enough to try a run yet) so a perfect time to take you from 26 to 50 in the top 100 best of the rest.....
Free Nelson Mandela (Special AKA)
(First track I played on my first stereo system; 18 year birthday present. 21 years on and I still have the same amp and speakers!)
Ghostbusters (Ray Parker Jnr)
(First vinyl single I ever bought (29 years on and I still have.....terrible taste in music); the number of times I wiped that thing with a static cloth....I swear all it did was sweep all the dust into a perfect line on the record rather than removing it!!)
Golden Brown (The Stranglers)
(Can't beat a bit of harpsichord intro!!)
Hallelujah (Rufus Wainwright)
"It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth. The minor fall, the major lift. The baffled king composing, Hallelujah"
Hands (Jewel)
"If I could tell the world just one thing, it would be that we're all ok"
I Just Haven't Met You Yet (Michael Buble)
"I might have to wait, I'll never give up. I guess it's half timing, and the other half's luck"
Human (Human League)
"The tears I cry, aren't tears of pain. They're only to hide my guilt and shame. I forgive you, now I ask the same of you. While we were apart, I was human too"
Hungry Eyes (Eric Carmen)
(No decent, self-respecting Dirty Dancing fan can argue with this one!)
I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow (Dan Tyminski)
(George Clooney singing this in 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou'; what's not to like??!)
I Hope That I Don't Fall In Love With You (Juliet Turner & Brian Kennedy)
"I turn around and look at you, and you light a cigarette. I wish I had the guts to bum one; but, we've never met" (price for guessing what happens at the end of the song....!)
I Wanna Grow Old With You (Adam Sandler)....I know....I know.....
"I'll miss you, kiss you; give you my coat when you are cold. Need you, feed you; even let you hold the remote control"
If I Was (Midge Ure)
"If I was a poet; all my love in burning words I would show it" (love that rhyme!)
If Only I Could..... (Sidney Youngblood)
".....I'd make this world a better place"
If You're Not The One (Daniel Beddingplants)
"If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today. If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way"
I'm Already There (Lonestar)
"A little voice came on the phone. And said "Daddy when you coming home." He said the first thing that came to his mind. I'm already there"
I'm Not In Love (10cc)
"I keep your picture up on the wall, it hides a nasty stain just lying there. But don't you ask me to give it back, I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me"
It's Five O'clock Somewhere (Alan Jackson & Jimmy Buffett)
"I'm getting paid by the hour, and older by the minute. My boss just pushed me over the limit. I'd like to call him something; I guess I'll just call it a day"
Jai Ho! (A R Rahman/The Pussycat Dolls)
(it just spews energy)
James Bond Theme Tune (Monty Norman)
(the name's Blaydon.......Adrian Blaydon......now give me a cup of tea - white, no sugar - stirred; not shaken)
Jumping Mouse (Ashley Maher)
"Learn by looking behind you, but burn the bridges that bind you"
Kiss Kiss (Holly Valance)
(You know the phrase 'dance like there's no one watching'? Well this is what I dance to in my front room......and God do I hope no one gets an eyeful of that!)
King For A Day (The Thompson Twins)
"If I was king for just one day. I would give it all away. I would give it all away for loving you"
Lean On Me (Club Nouveau)
"Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain; we all have sorrow. But, if we are wise, we know that there's; always tomorrow"
Leave Right Now (Will Young)
"My racing heart, is just the same. Why make it strong to break it once again"
Let My Love Open The Door (Peter Townshend)
"When everything feels all over. Everybody seems unkind. I'll give you a four leaf clover. Take all worry out of your mind" (It's also in a great film - not one of the top five, but still good - called Dan In Real Life)
Fifty down, fifty to go.......more to come.......by the way, is it only me that has noticed these songs have more than a teaspoonful of cheese mixed in with them (you should see the ones I haven't included; I say 'see' as you REALLY don't want to hear them). In my defence, many of the more 'grrrrrrrrrr' ones have already been mentioned.......like.. ......errrr.......ummmmmm........Gina G????
Soooooooo beyond hope.....I passed hope a long time ago and have gone so far past it is no longer so much as a dot on the horizon......oh well....!
And as for the marathon - or in my case, marathin (why did it take me so long to jump on that one? I must be slipping!) - it's 48 to go! Think I'd better start now?.......
WELCOME
Hello there everyone, and welcome to my blog (hats off to 'Blogging for Dummies' for teaching this dummy how to....you know!).
I am overweight; make that very overweight. I think the technical term is 'morbidly obese'....ouch! Over the last few years I have had a few health warning shots, enough to make me realise that although there is nothing going on with my health that can't be reversed; my time is running out to do something about it before something really bad happens.
So this is my journey to health, and the plan is an ambitious one. I want to lose weight, and I want to get fitter; fit enough to run the Manchester 10k in May of 2012, fit enough to run a half marathon towards the end of 2012, and then fit enough to run the London Marathon in 2013, where the blogging journey will end at the finish line down the Mall.
I write this in the hope that the words and thoughts of both myself and readers can inspire me when the journey gets difficult, then hopefully people can be inspired by my story; believing that the most difficult journey is possible.
I make a promise to you that I will be honest - if the wheels fall off and I have six pizzas in two days, I will come clean - and I will do my very best. Share it with me.
......Wish me luck!!
