No Sleep Till My 5K Is Done! A Beastie Boys Birthday Run for MCA | Day 217

5K EVERY DAY – Day #217

(“Sound of Science” lyrics that mention how to say Yauch)

Today, August 5th, we celebrate the birthday of a true hip-hop legend and an advocate for peace

(“Paul Revere” lyrics of “Now my name is M.C.A. I’ve got a license to kill/ I think you know what time it is it’s time to get ill”)

Some of those “back in the day” lyrics weren’t always about peace, Adam Yauch, also known as MCA, of the Beastie Boys would have been 61 today.

(“No Sleep Til Brooklyn” clip of “Born and bred in Brooklyn the U.S.A./ They call me Adam Yauch but I’m M.C.A.)

Adam’s journey proved that a person—and their music—can grow and affect change in the world. Me – I’m just trying to help with some inspiration of doing a 5K run every day. It happened again this morning.

(Day #217)

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“I think every person has the ability to affect change in the world, whether through our every thought, our every word, the way that we interact with other people.” – Adam Yauch
