day 20: a Janathon blog disguised as a film review

It was a lunchtime quickie today (minds out of the gutter people!). No, I did a short run as a break from a pretty full on day at work. Originally I was going to do a double whammy and run at lunchtime and do my body blitz class in the evening. Until I saw that the Wolf of Wall Street was on at my favourite cinema. So my janathon effort turned into a very quick, and muddy sprint (except for up the very steep hill part) before getting back to the office chaos.

My diminished exercise effort was worth it. I would def recommend Wolf of Wall Street. Unless extreme drug-taking, sex scenes and A LOT of swearing upsets you that is...but then if that was the case you wouldn't go near a Scorsese film anyway, and you would be missing out big time. This is right up there with Goodfellas and Casino, which is lucky as they are supposed to be a bit of a trilogy..according film-types. And it is funny. One particularly hilarious scene is where Leonardo DiCaprio suffers a delayed reaction to taking a whole lot of past-their-sell-by-date Quaalude pills. There are a some serious moments in it, especially towards the end but overall, I would call this a comedy though others may disagree.


Anyway, this is turning into a bit of a film review so I will sign off...my run wasn't that interesting anyway.

Stats!
distance: 2.3 miles
