An ode to Janatholism

An Ode to Janatholism*

On Day 13 of Janathon,
I found it hard to fit a run;
I was at work from 7 'till 8
so arriving home, 'twas very late.
I was also full of a three-course meal
that was a part of the late-work deal;

Thus still attired within in my suit,
I plotted out a little route.
I made myself run 'least a mile
whilst I was thinking all the while:

Has this challenge become a curse?
'Cos my jan·ath·ol·i·sm is getting worse!

*Cited: 12th Jan 2011, Cake of Good Hope.

Distance: 1.1 miles
Weather: fine... quite warm acutally!
Feeling: full... very fat and full of delicious shepherds pie and creme brulee!
See my run here.

    Good on you for getting out after such a long day ... even if it was polished off with a three-course meal!

    So is it poetry in motion when you run?!?

    You must be pleased and quite content,
    Knowing fat in that pie has been spent,
    On a worthy mile of Janathon fun,
    You did rather well to fit in that run.
