Walking to the Beat

[CBDB]

I’m currently obsessed with finding the perfect song playlists to walk and run to.

This lunchtime walk, I tried a song playlist that has beats per minute (BPM) between 130 and 140. But 140 BPM is a bit too fast, s as if between 130 and 135 is doable.

Will post the playlists once I have experimented a bit more, but wondered if anyone else has specific music they love walking to?

I'm still very fond of the track that opens the first walk section on the C25K podcast. Makes me feel a bit emotional!

Yes! I've actually found using Podrunner (podrunner.com/) really helpful. It's basically a podcast with music at a certain beat. When I can coordinate the beat, my steps, and my breath its so much fun!

Yeah, I’ve done one C25k journey with that. Just the music (edm) is not quite my style, but I love the concept.

And I should say, I am completely with you with having so much fun when running/walking to the beat! It really gets my feet moving like nothing else!

I sometimes have to turn the music off during my cool-down because I am not slowing down enough... thanks to the music 🤣
