The last few days on my double digit below zero temperature runs I have been thinking a lot about what drives me to do the things I do, what makes me the way I am, why I am motivated by certain things. Now I am not trying to get deep here but I am just thinking, and wondering about this song.
Manfred Mann - The Runner
I remember as a little kid that I actually taped this song off of the radio (you guys remember doing that right?) and it was one of my favorite songs. This was long before I ever started running. I still love the song to this day and it is one of my favorite songs to listen to while running. I know the video is pretty sick, but it was the early 80's and I guess that was cool then. I just wonder if this song has had an actual subconscious influence on me?
I mean what if I had taken a liking to this song instead
Weird Al Yankovic - Eat it
Would I have turned out different?? I think maybe....
If simple things like this do by chance have a life long influence over us, whats gonna happen to the video game kids of today??
