Well I did it, after all the time I've spent on the internet searching for it I've come to the conclusion that I needed to do it myself in order to replace the music she is playing at her specific bpms. And in that video? She likes to change them a lot.
First of all the resources I've used are :
http://www.all8.com/tools/bpm.htm - you tap to the beat with your spacebar to get the bpm of the song
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ - this is a free sound editor, make sure to get the Lame mp3 encoder after you download it so you can export your files to mp3.
The reason I used audacity is because a lot of 150 bpm songs are usually 3 minutes and 20-40 seconds and those intervals are 3 minutes and 2 seconds exactly so I had to make it fit somehow. There are tutorials on basic audacity use on youtube. For transition after I "clipped" the song I just highlighted the last 10 seconds and put a fade out effect.
So in conclusion; here is your break down of the 4 fast mile walk slim video (that you see on youtube)
0:00-3:35- Warm up 135 bpm 3 minutes 35 seconds
3:35 - 8:40 - 140 bpm 5 minutes 5 seconds
8:40 - 11:42 - 150 bpm (the beginning of intervals) 3 minutes 2 seconds
11:43 - 13:53 164-165 bpm (boosted "walking") 2 minutes
13:53-16:55 - 150 bpm 3 minutes 2 seconds
16:56 - 19:06 164-165 bpm 2 minutes 10 seconds
19:07 - 22:09 150 bpm etc etc etc
22:10 - 24:20 165 bpm you get the hint on the minutes
24:21 - 27:23 150 bpm
27:24 - 29:34 165 bpm
29:35 - 32:37 150 bpm
32:38 - 34:48 165 bpm (The last boosted walk)
34:49 - 40:00 - 155 bpm (Bad reputationnn... I almost know all the words because of how often i do it)
40:01 - 45:13 - 150 bpm I feel good! (I need a towel stat!)
45:14 - 48:25 - 130 bpm (Cooldown)
The way I filled in the gaps was just the cascading down, the start times of the minute and seconds is when I hear the next set of music come in, so when you see her walk forward and backward just follow suit.
I hope this helps anyone who does this video frequently (like me, I do it 6 days a week) and keeps your sanity at bay when mixing up the music you replace hers with
You can find music to fill in all of those gaps OR just repeat the same songs like she does and then mix it up daily/weekly.
Good luck to you all and happy walking

Thanks for the tips......I like the All 8 site.....really helpful for finding fast songs from your own library.
A site I like for finding new fast songs is: http://walk.jog.fm/
You plug in the walking speed (MPH) you want and it suggests songs.....or you can select the BPMs. You can narrow by genre too.
I like to do Leslie DVDs with ear buds in sometimes. I just sync a bunch of fast songs to a (cheap) MP3 player, hit shuffle, and go. I'm pretty lazy, but I'll have to check out the audacity site. Switching out DVDs (and instructors) helps me fight off boredom.0
