One Thing

February 1st, 2010 by wildernessrunning

“Just scooters. Very fast scooters.”

I have only ever had one custom ring tone, for calls from my son. So among the highlights of every week is any time I hear the song below. With a sly, obscure, historical anecdote beneath a punk rock surface, the tune sort of epitomizes the boy.

I know, this One Thing does not in fact have much to do with running. However, at the moment I can certainly relate to the protagonists’ determination to do their “very best” in spite of numerous obstacles and, perhaps, reason itself. (In terms of my personal 2010 running wish list, January was an abject disaster.)
