Running music!

[Kate1991]

I'm just about to finish the B210K programme and so I need to put together my own music to run for an hour. What would you reccommend? The cheesier the better!

[MaryAB Graduate]

Eye of the Tiger!

When I was making a play list I cheated and googled a running CD and pretty much copied the play list as I had most of the songs!

[shelleymcb Graduate]

[Kate1991 Graduate in reply to shelleymcb]

I'll do it at the weekend - hopefully I'll be ready and I'll try my new route again

Sorry, whats B210k. Tried to find it on itunes but couldn't.

[Hidden in reply to tygfuz]

It's short for "Bridge to 10k" - because some people just aren't satisfied with 5k! There are training plans and some podcasts here (kindly uploaded by AndyStev/CaroleC)

couchto5k.healthunlocked.co...

I think that the NHS/Laura are working on some updated versions too.

[juicydee Graduate]

Probably anything by Green Day or the Foo Fighters!!

How about this for weird?

When I ran on Tuesday the Wk9 podcast kept cutting out on my phone, so I gave up and switched to radio rather than listen to my own panting! It was Classic FM, and I stayed with it for Elgar's Nimrod and then something similarly slow paced. I knew something more beaty would probably be better but to be honest I'm vague about changing stations as I rarely use my phone for music.

I finished the distance and checked my time and I'd put in a personal best for pace - 10% faster. So Classic FM is what I will be listening to this morning!

I once listened to some Mozart by mistake because of an ipod problem, and I also did a pb time on that run! I also noted that I was calmer and breathing nicely I don't know why I haven't done it again really.

[Misstrolly Graduate]

Some of these suggestions are great.. I'll definately be adding a few to my playlists.

I mentioned these on a previous thread, but here are some of my favourites

Ltj Bukem logical progression album.

Rain down love, Freemasons

Ride like the wind Christopher Cross

[Greg_M Graduate in reply to Misstrolly]

That whole album is good. Going to see them at Download later in the year. It will probably be a bit crowded to start running around the field though...... I shall be running on the inside

[Greg_M Graduate in reply to Greg_M]
