I need epic running music!

o2co2 · July 2012

I suggest trying out some electronica or rave music. Always pumping and driving rhythms. Daft Punk seems to do it for me.

Check out these podcasts in the iTunes store by DJ Steve Boyett....I think they would be right up your alley! No words, driving beats (Podrunner is actually measured at beats per minute) and each podcast is around an hour long.

- Groovelectric
- Podrunner

Best of all, they are FREE (or were the last time I downloaded them!). Here's his Website:

He apparently has added intervals podcasts too (including C25K) and those look like they can be downloaded from his Website.

Karna to Burn. Seriously, look it up. Driving guitars, no singing. Epic.

My favorite running song right now is Feel So Close (radio edit) - Calvin Harris. It has an AWESOME beat. The rest of my running playlist is:

*kitten* Back Home - Gym Class Heroes (I prefer the edited version where she sings "Get yourself back home," so that's the one I have)
Cudi Zone - Kid Cudi
Going On - Gnarls Barkley
Wild Ones - Flo Rida ft. Sia
Running Up That Hill - Placebo
Sorry for Party Rocking - LMFAO

It's a short list, but I love all seven songs and never mind hearing them over and over again.

"Sing, Sing, Sing" - Chris Tomlin

I've said this before but my go to song is "A Little Less Conversation" by Elvis Presley

I put this in the middle of my playlist because by the time I am flagging in energy and am playing mind games to quit, this song comes on and it just energizes me to keep going.

Its about 6 minutes long, its got a great tempo and it gets more and more powerful as it goes along. By the time he says "Come on, come on; Come on come on; Come on come on; I feel like air boxing while I'm running.

This is THE song that KEEPS me going! Please just give it a listen and I would love to hear if you feel the same.
