Music to run to?

[Archieandme]

Hi everyone, any suggestions for some good running mixes please?

[Zane2G]

For me personally I’m going to be looking to run to something about 128bpm. Which puts the music in the “dance” music area.

I’m also considering a DJ mix so a bit of Oliver Heldon, Tiesto, Deadmau5, Eric Prdyz that kinda thing 😊😊

I do have a music mix on Spotify if you use that...more than welcome to it 🎧

[Archieandme Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

Oh thank you, but I don’t have Spotify.

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Archieandme]

No worries...if you get Spotify then your more than welcome to it.

Perfect

I cannot run without music. My taste in music for me depends on the mood. I'm a fan of indie music and rock mostly. I have many playlists from 80's and 90's music and the occasional pop tune but my go to for running is metal/rock/ hard rock music.

My favourite running playlist include:

* Headstrong - Trapt

* The Kids Aren't Alright - The Offspring

* Carry on - Avenged Sevenfold

* Toxicity - System of a Down

* Warrior - Disturbed

* Down with the sickness - Disturbed

* The Animal - Disturbed

* Inside the fire - Disturbed

It's an acquired taste I think and not for everybody but its what get me going and my heart pumping.

If you have Spotify i suggest their workout playlists...

Hope you find the right set for you.

Thanks for the suggestions. George michaels Outside is my fave atm.

In fact Nellie the Elephant would be more apt 😁

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

Certainly anything by Slayer and most Slipknot 😂

When I run to music I either make sure it’s too fast to run to, or I match my cadence (stride rate) to the BPM. jog.fm is great for finding songs that you like at the right BPM.

There are all sort of suggestions here, I'll jump in and recommend any of Jancanruns Playlists if you have Spotify, no heavy or death metal on there if you don't like that kind of 'music'

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Some of it snook in 😂

Yes, I hope you enjoyed being on duty for Junior 2K parkrun on Sunday morning.

Never run to any music that you don’t normally listen to or type of music that annoys you. People suggest their own choices that may not be to your liking. My choices may make you climb up a wall. You know that song that you like? Listen to it, then. Or discover something similar or don’t listen to anything at all. I never run to the beat either. I refuse to follow a drummer. Simply run, relax, absorb, enjoy and let the music add onto it. 140bpm? Why?...

[Archieandme Graduate in reply to mrrun]

Very true, was just casting around for where people go to for their music. I’m very bad at remembering the names of tracks 😌
