Took me a few days to get over the fact that all I’ll be allowed to do on a sport/fitness front for a while is cardio fitness.

I don’t even know what’s that. And I’m praying cardio soddin’ fitness at least includes some decent running. Does it? Pretty please?

I still have to tell my touch rugby team mates about this — and I know that touch rugby isn’t rugby, but when I explained the doctor what was it all about he said that no, chasing people carrying an oval ball, albeit without the tackling, and especially the pre-training fitness routine is not recommended for me, at least for the moment. No way, José. Heh.

Ah, well.

Anyway, while I discover what the heck is “cardio fitness” and how much I’m allowed to run etc, I’ve refined my usual running tracklist hoping I’ll be allowed to use it, just to realise there are a few recurring artists in about 1.5 hr worth of music:

  1. Road to nowhere (Talking heads)
  2. Jenny don’t be hasty (Paolo Nutini)
  3. Bite hard (Franz Ferdinand)
  4. Everything she wants ‘97 (Wham!)
  5. Wonderwall (Paul Anka)
  6. Heavy cross (Gossip)
  7. Kings of the wild frontier (Adam and the ants)
  8. Miss America (David Byrne)
  9. Love can move mountains (The Proclaimers)
  10. Perfect (Fairground attraction)
  11. (Nothing but) Flowers (Talking heads)
  12. Something worth fighting for (The Silencers)
  13. The edge of heaven (Wham!)
  14. Single ladies (Beyonce) (yes, I mean seriously)
  15. I’m gonna be (500 miles) (The Proclaimers) (OF COURSE.)
  16. The Time Warp (Rocky Horror Picture Show OST)
  17. Wild wild life (Talking heads)
  18. This is the life (Amy Macdonald)
  19. Wake me up before you go-go (Wham!) (stop laughing.)
  20. Willie Stewart (Eddie Reader & the RSNO)
  21. I know (The Proclaimers)
  22. I know (reprise) (The Proclaimers) (I just love those drums)

Stop laughing, I said.

  1. Stef Said,

    WTF?!
    What did you break this time?
    I can’t leave you for a second…
    ;-)

  2. G Said,

    Nothing broken, just not allowed to do anything that could be harmful to the chest area for some time.
    I’m allowed to breathe, though, apparently.

  3. Xabaras Said,

    So you can’t join the team ‘coz the doctor said so? I must call momPaola and give to Castro the address of Dr. House wannabe…

  4. G Said,

    Xab — suppose (hope, actually) Castro doesn’t need the same doctor I’ve been to. Thanks for the support, anyway.

  5. Xabaras Said,

    As always, we are waiting for you. Get well.

  6. fiore Said,

    May I have a copy of your playlist? :-)

  7. G Said,

    Fiore — sure! :)

  8. fiore Said,

    “Rojiura no Uchuu Shonen” by the Cobratwisters
