Good website to find music for running.

Some of you maybe aware of this one already but I stumbled across jog.fm the other day. It's a handy website for finding running music depending on your pace.

And then if you use an unnamed website for "Youtube to MP3" you can get the suggested music at a rather good price.

Disclaimer: I am not to be held responsible for multi-millionaires making slightly less money by suggesting there maybe alternatives to overpriced music out there on the Internet............... (god forbid!)

I was having a look at the app store the other day for any app updates and found that there is now an app(not sure about on android, I have an iphone) for jog.fm.

It scans your music library and tailors the music to your pace. You can set it to either do a fixed pace that you set before the run or set it on auto and it will play whatever matches your pace at the time, using songs with similar beats per minute.

Its pretty good. It has the odd blip where it skips songs after the first few seconds but good if you're getting sick of the music on the podcasts. I tend to listen to the podcast on the first run of a new week to see what Laura has to say, then listen to my own music for the other 2 runs (week 7 onwards when there are no intervals).

Its £1.99 so pretty steep for an app but something different than compiling your own playlist.
