May l suggest Du Hast by Rammstein? It's equally uplifting and gentle as anything that Disney may throw at us. ;)

Thanks for the suggestions ClairePottruff73! I’m finding that music is making a big difference to my runs. Accidentally downloaded Shania Twain - Man I feel like a woman - disaster Agghh

Not sad at all! I don't know how to get music so all I have is that free album that U2 gifted everyone a few years ago - must say I quite like it now too.

Absolutely not! I have the same. *I am Moaannnnnna*!

Think it depends what Week you're up to. Week one, anything goes, Moana included. Week 2, perhaps some country and pop along with the Disney. Week 3, definitely a couple of rock anthems, and this is where Coldplay come in. Week 4 Adele, Sheeran, and a bit of light opera. Week 5 less of a gradual development and more of a sudden jolt - Springsteen perhaps, Winehouse, and Berlioz? Week 6 and stamina is developing. So, Mozart, Pink Floyd, anything long. Week 7 Dylan, Verdi. You might try Wagner, but find you're not quite ready for it. Week 8 Britten, Art Tatum, Palestrina, look how far you've come!!! Week 9 and the only thing you can stand to listen to is Schnittke. Moana is a distant memory. Congratulations, you are ready to graduate xxx

Well I certainly need to move on from Harry Potter! Who would have thought this running lark would become such an education !! 😁

in reply to sarah65

I do worry at times that people aren't taking it seriously enough. Perhaps I've found a kindred spirit in you? ☺
