[Verse] Two lads laced up on a Saturday morn One was coughing The other well-worn A 32k trail They’d bite off and chew Both knew they’d regret it But what could they do [Chorus] Oh they ran They ran Through the mud and the pain Up the hills Down the rocks Through the cold and the rain On Sunday they groaned On Monday they knew They’d call in to work with the Monday excuse [Verse 2] One’s chest was tight The other’s knees screamed Sweat mixed with regret They’d chased a bad dream The finish line loomed Like a cruel Distant shore Each step was a gamble They cursed and begged for more [Prechorus] Blisters on blisters Legs like lead Should’ve stayed home Stayed in bed [Chorus] Oh they ran They ran Through the mud and the pain Up the hills Down the rocks Through the cold and the rain On Sunday they groaned On Monday they knew They’d call in to work with the Monday excuse [Bridge] “Boss I’m sick ” said the first His voice a rasp The second chimed in “My back’s in a clasp” But they both knew the truth As they lay on the floor Trail racing on Saturday? Never again For sure
