edited October 3 in Fitness and Exercise
I'm a recent member of MFP and have started walking on a treadmill 5 days a week (30-60 minutes) , into my 3rd week of doing so. The gym I attend plays dance/techno on the overhead speakers most days, which is simply not my bag. I've taken to playing full albums (Foo Fighters' 'Wasting Light' is a current favorite) and to creating playlists instead, the second of which is posted below and is intended for a full hour walk.

I'd be interested in seeing what lists others have compiled, being the 'music geek' that I am, thanks in advance for your shares! :smile:

'TREAD TOO!' - 'Getaway' (Earth, Wind & Fire), 'The Power Of Equality' (Red Hot Chili Peppers), 'Super Bad - Parts 1 & 2 (James Brown), 'Pusherman' (Curtis Mayfield). 'One Nation Under A Groove' (Funkadelic), 'Knock Me Down' (Red Hot Chili Peppers), 'You And I' (Rick James), '(Not Just) Knee Deep - Part 1' (Funkadelic), 'Bustin' Loose' (Chuck Brown), 'Agony of DeFeet' (Parliament), 'Partyup' (Prince), 'Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough' (Michael Jackson), 'You Dropped a Bomb On Me' (The Gap Band) AND 'Let's Groove' (Earth, Wind & Fire).
