Bo Diddley (1929-2008)

I'm a road runner honey,
And you can't keep up with me,
I'm a road runner honey,
And you can't keep up with me,
Come on, let's race,
Baby baby, you will see...

Bo Diddley left us today, underrated and underpaid. His music, however, lives on and with that I put a raucous live show on my iPod and took off this afternoon.

Baa-ba-ba-baa... ba-ba

His signature cadence drove me this afternoon. Was gonna do three, then four, and finally went around the the Art Museum for 6.5. The Bo Diddley beat and the late afternoon made for a quick run, and by the time I hit 40th St. I felt like I was gliding. Been awhile since I felt like that on a run.

6.5 in 50:55.

Rest in peace you old Roadrunner.
