What music do you run to?

I have a great running playlist and some songs definitely make running easier. Wondered if anyone else has some so I can add to my playlist.

Do a search as we have numerous posts on this subject. You don’t say what genre you prefer 😃

I run to music I wouldn’t normally listen to just because it’s good to run to. I find myself listening to country for example 😱 😃

Footloose would be first on my list.

Got any Quo ?

I, too, tend to run to stuff I don't normally listen to. Have some of my children's music which is very good for a beat to run along to. Insomnia is great. Good and long with changes in speed and rhythm.

Hi, week one I ran to the soundtrack of dreamboats and petticoats 50 early 60s music. Nice short tracks for short runs

Week 2 Roy Orbison and travelling wilburies

Week 3 Spotify chose my weekly list so each track was a surprise

Week 4 Eddie izzard I needed something to make me laugh

Week 5 not decided yet but I’m going to need some longer tracks to see me through might even choose pink Floyd the wall since I think I may be hitting one!
