I don't care that this site is turning into a bunch of youtube links; you need to watch this one. . .
Because Radiohead is good for stuck marathoners. The balding, disheveled running man who goes hands-to-ground after his anerobic work; I mean the guy with the wife-beater tee shirt and the matches that have the fetus on the cover, him, he represents me, us--taking it to his mortality, that fucked-up pursuing car symbolizing life's stagnant PRs, life's finality, with a blanched, sickly Thom Yorke playing the part of the angel of death in the back seat.
Keep running, everyone.
Don't give up; you aren't done yet.

Great video - they're all good - 7 Television Commercials.
I learn something new every day. So you don't work for the state department, eh? Good luck!
I've never listened to RadioHead or the Smiths. That's one genre I seem to have missed entirely. But while running the Erie Canal path on a foggy, sleeting November evening, dimly illuminated by two clicks of a Princeton TEC, "Karma Police" and "How Soon is Now" make for some very cool mood music.
What else you got on that iPod?
Congratulations on your selection as a chasingKimbia essay finalist!
