The songs in my head are things like 'Use it up, wear it out' and 'Staying Alive'. The music in my ears is usually from BBC Sounds so I don't choose. One time it played 'Uptown Top Ranking' just as I was coming to the end of a very tiring run and it boosted me no end :)

Don't think my music choice would be good for your playlist πŸ™„πŸ€”I'm a lifelong Pink Floyd fan and when I ran my first 25 minutes in week 6 run 3 I listened to a Floyd track called 'Echoes' the track is just over 24 minutes long so when it finished I knew I had made it 😁

That is maybe a bit long! But a bit of Floyd could bring a meditative vibe I reckon...

Haha! So I rarely listen to upbeat inspirational music while running. In fact, low key, chilled music works best for me. That said, I remember one particularly gruelling 12k run when I put on Grace Jones Nightclubbing and the slow dub beat just suited the run!Occasional bit of heavy metal too, but I won't share! So I'm not sure I can add any recommendations!

Too many! But here's a couple that really lifted me during C25K... First on the Pink Floyd theme a reworking of Fearless by mcthfg and Supercozi -I'll climb the hill in my own way πŸŒ„...

Also Flying by the Beatles, which as well as being very groovy, I think it may be 90bpm and therefore perfect for a 180bpm cadence

I like to keep my playlist eclectic, uplifting and only occasionally, not relentlessly uptempo.
