I don’t think I could run as well if I didn’t have my music 🎧
What songs give you motivation or even good rythym during your runs?
Current favourites for me are
Fight song by Rachel Platten
A bang on the ear by the Waterboys
Dog days are over by Florence & the Machine
What about us by Pink
I drove all night by Roy Orbison & the Philharmonic
Shine by Take That
Troublemaker by Olly Murs
🎧🏃♀️🎧🏃♀️🎧🏃♀️😀😀😀
Still honing my playlist but favourites are
Lose Yourself - Eminem
(You’re Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher - Jackie Wilson
A little less conversation- Elvis
Pump It - Black Eyed Peas
Mr Blue Sky - ELO
Let Me Show You Love - K Klass and a whole load of other 90’s club classics
Might be showing my age here .... 😀
I love Mr Blue Sky - it was performed really well at the last ever( outdoor) school concert of my youngest child ( before she left & went off to uni) - it will always be a special memory. 😄
That’s on my running playlist too 😀
🙈 songs from “musicals”. Nothing better than running up a hill to “Be a man” from Mulan!
I celebrated graduating by making my first run list. I listen to a wide variety of favourites but there is something fun about running to jazz - ( currently Dave Brubeck and Glen Miller) - it sort of makes me want to dance along! Skyfall is great for the cool down 5 mins - 'This is the end...'😂
Has to be rock music for me. AC/DC Thunderstruck is my favourite or a bit of Thin Lizzy & Brian Adams 🏃🏼♀️
Anything blues rock influenced, preferably played by long haired men from the southern US states through stacks of Marshall amps. Loudly. Pop music would make me run into a tree or self harm.
👍 for Eminem, lose yourself
It has to be high energy dance music for me...
Skrillex - Breakin a sweat
Kernkraft 400 - Zombie Nation
Fat Boy Slim - Right here Right now
Martin Garrix - Animals
To name a few 😁
The one that really gets me moving is Satisfaction by Benny Benassi. I find I have to run in time with the beat and my fastest km is always the one where that plays.
I have an everyday playlist which fits with my running too which includes bands like;
Green day.
Beth Rowley.
Hello Tomorrow.
Shame.
High Tides.
The Beatles.
Frank Carter.
Brett Newski.
The The.
