On the shuffle during this morning's run.

With sunset coming so early last night, I decided to brave the temperatures and head out for an early morning run. Here's what was running through my ears

"Zak and Sara" (Ben Folds): Nothing like a white guy ticklin' the ivories to get you movin'.

"All Night" (Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley and Stephen Marley): With so many Bob Marley spawns walking the earth, you would think a couple of them would be crappy musicians, but I haven't found one yet.

"Come On and Love Me" (Lenny Kravitz): A good drumbeat from back in the days when Lenny still had dreads.

"Express Yourself" (NWA): Dre's in da 'hood and hez up to no good.

"Get Up I Feel Like a Sex Machine" (James Brown): Quite possibly my favorite running song. Take me to the bridge now.

"Did You Ever Look So Nice?" (The Samples): Carrie and I heard this song when we were lining up for the Chicago Marathon. It was a little sign that everything was gonna be all right. Love this song.

"Born Losers" (Matthew Good): A nice little addition to the music library thanks to iTunes' free download of the week.

"It's the End of the World As We Know It—And I Feel Fine" (REM): Insert your own politcal commentary here.

Running Tip of the Day: Chewing gum while you're running is great, but if you have nasal drainage, at some point you can't be completely sure it's the gum that you're chewing.
