June - so nearly a novel by Frank Herbert.

[Mid Life Crisis Marathon Man]

Hello.

Heck, it's already a week into June and I've no further run to report. In terms of excuses, it's the usual suspects I'm afraid: insomnia (pretty bad this time), too much stressful paid employment, plus a lack of short-term running goals.

Never mind. It's winter down here so a bit of lay off is called for anyhow. Or so I like to think.

I do have a track du jour however. This one has been calling to me to get back into the running shorts - I don't think I've ever actually run to this track, and it's a shame because it's made for cranking out some PB pace and shedding some sweat. It's the hit single off Nightwish's last huge album (well, in Finland, anyway). Give it a whirl; I'm going to. Very soon, once I finish this gaggle of night shifts. Sigh. A great video, too.
