music monday: superheroes

Posted on October 5, 2015November 16, 2015 by arunningmess

I’m not embarrassed or ashamed to admit the first time I saw today’s Music Monday video, “Superheroes” by The Script, it made me cry. I can’t think of another song or video off the top of my head where it affected me like that. But I read something this week that made me think of this song.

my year without cable

Posted on October 2, 2015October 1, 2015 by arunningmess

September is officially over, and with it, I have officially survived a whole year without cable or television. Yes! It can be done! Last September the cable came off, and in it’s replacement, Netflix and Hulu came on. Truth is I didn’t really miss the cable. I didn’t really watch that many programs to begin…

music monday: high

Posted on September 14, 2015October 6, 2015 by arunningmess

If there ever was a song that immediately told me what I needed to hear at that very moment, “High” by Young Rising Sons was it. Many times as runners we get caught up in the minutiae of a run — the numbers, the time, the distance — and many times they determine how we feel…

music monday: dog days are over

Posted on September 7, 2015October 6, 2015 by arunningmess

Being that it’s Labor Day and all, today marks the unofficial end of summer. And when I think of summer, I think of the dog days of summer. And when I hear the dog days of summer, I can’t help but think of the song “Dog Days Are Over” by Florence + The Machine. Are…

music monday: renegades

Posted on August 31, 2015September 21, 2015 by arunningmess

In case you were wondering what happened to last week’s Music Monday post, well, wonder no more. Unfortunately, the week got away from me and before I knew it, I was huffing and puffing up mountains in a race that I will talk about in my next post. Promise. So now Music Monday resumes!
