Week Two: The Glory of Tom Jones

It's said to succeed in running you need to stay associated with the run, listening to your body and concentrating on your movements. I tried this concept this past weekend for my 7 mile run, and about 5 minutes in, I was done listening to my body and instead thinking about how Tom Jones is a living god. My soon to be full obsession with Tom Jones started over a year ago when I heard an interview with Mr. Jones on NPR about his newest album and his history as an artist. Knowing his over the top songs about love-making and admiring his charm with the ladies inspired me to make my personal ode to Tom Jones or as it's called,

THE GLORY OF TOM JONES

1. If you've never put a unicorn horn in your mouth, you've never gone down on Tom Jones
2. Tom Jones once seduced a mute and later wrote a song about her called "SEX SCREAM"
3. Tom Jones' voice can calm a crying baby, and impregnate a woman from 30 yards away
4. Barack Obama voted for Tom Jones in the 2008 Elections
5. Tom Jones is a lover, and a fighter
6. There are two types of people in the world, women and Tom Jones
7. If Aretha Franklin and Pavarotti had a boy, that boy would get coffee for Tom Jones
8. There can be only one Tom Jones, that's why Tom Jones carries around a sword

With Tom Jones' help I ran the 7 miles and wasn't too exhausted though I need to start bringing water with me or at least a couple dollars to buy some water along the route. Summer is here and although passing out on the streets of Brooklyn is very common, I am trying to steer clear.

I drop down to 5 miles for this saturdays long run, so this next week should be smooth sailing.

Good night Tom Jones
