Run and Hide

Marathon-Themed Playlist

So you’re tied to your desk on the one day that everyone else gets to run around outside.

You can either goof off or crank up the tunes.

You’re “Wasting Time” (Jack Johnson), but who isn’t today? Sure, there are “Rumors” (Josh Ritter) that the office is shutting down early, but seriously, “Stay Don’t Go” (Spoon).

Did somebody say “Weed Party” (Band of Horses)? That might get you feeling a little love for the home state like a true “Mass Romantic” (The New Pornographers).

You’ll probably start to reflect on “All These Things That I’ve Done” (The Killers). You? “Die Alone” (Ingrid Michaelson)? Whoa there; take a walk if you need to, “Pilgrim” (Josh Rouse). Let the runners inspire you and contemplate some “Clean Living” (RJD2) instead.

Just remember to “Keep It Simple” (Van Morrison). And if you find yourself “Waving Flags” (British Sea Power) on the way home, remember: You’re a winner.

Because you just about made it to the “End of the Day” (Beck).
