Morning folk,

I was just wondering if people would like to post some great running ( and warm down) music. I have downloaded some already but would really appreciate some new ones. My suggestions for great running and inspiring tracks are: invincible by Muse, stuck in the middle with you by Steelers Wheel, jump by Girls Aloud, waterfall by stone Roses, such a night by Michael Buble and as a warm down track I'm not the only one by Sam Smith. I'm in my 2nd to last run today and this music has kept me going!

Any more suggestions anyone?

Good for you 😃👍. Do have a browse/search posts as I bet this subject’s been discussed before 🙂

Download your favourites then you know you’ll enjoy them. Personally I love Resurrection by Stone Roses - the re-done version is even better. 🙂

Love Runs Out is good ( One Republic) A really quite hypnotic one is On the road again - Canned Heat. The harmonics bit is great running music.

On the Sami Murphy Bridge to 10k podcasts (pinned hereabouts) there are tons of original free tunes to accompany the runs. Free fun forever 😃👍

Madonna Into The Groove is a great one when I am struggling. My playlist ranges from Kasabian to Metallica & Race Against the Machine (angry music to get me up hills), 90s dance hits such as Insanity, Naked in the rain, Children, classic Insomnia by Faithless, Changing by Sigma ft Paloma Faith is a good one for when you are feeling good, Beautiful people by Chris Brown, Hey Boy Hey Girl by Chemical brothers, Bedsitter by Soft Cell has a good beat, Blame by John Newman, Sky Full of Stars by Coldplay, Sympathy for the Devil by the Rolling Stones - these work for me or Gary Davies megamix podcasts are great too!
