    I just downloaded a series of generic music set to a 160 bpm cadence. I'm old, I try to maintain the 160 bpm cadence.

    I use run.fm to find songs that match my intended pace... though I actually get music for a faster pace because I find it is helpful.

    Pretty much the ideal cadence drill song. Step on every downbeat. No matter what pace.

    I mostly listen to Deep House music when I run. The tracks are typically 7-10 min long with epic buildups.

    Something like this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=OnHK6NBD0SI
