Running muscic come again! As a runner
myself, I often turn to my ipod to derive some energy or boost to hold on
through a run. As much as I love finding new running routes, I love discovering
new running songs to fill in my playlist and then sharing them on my blogger. I recently collected a long list of more great running songs from
my friends and running mates too. Some of the songs are not familiar to me but
have quickly become my favorites. I hope readers can find out some good ones
from the list too. So, here it is. I hope you like them!
1. Makes Me Wonder - Maroon 5
I love Adam Levine's funky style and soft voice.
This song, from her album "As I Am," is perfect for a warm-up song to
get started.
2. Tubthumping - Chumbawamba
Chumbawamba is a unique band that has make
people remember them right away. This song has haunted in my mind for quite a
while as I have heard it. And I do not mind to hear it dozens of more times.
This song features light rhythms, which makes it a perfect some to get along
starting running.
3. Don't Stop Me Now - Queen
What can I say about this song? It is just
that kind of classic heavy metal that can boil all your blood and keep any
runner energetic.
4. Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)– Kelly
Clarkson
Usually I am not a big fan of Kelly
Clarkson. But the lyrics and style of this particular song are perfect for encouragement
during a tough part of a running training.
5. Eye Of The Tiger - Survivor
Another energetic song. One great feature
about this song is its rhythm is perfectly matching my pace of running. So I
guess it would stay in my ipod for quite a long time.
6. Don't Stop Believin' – Journey
One of my personal favorite. It is a great
song to end a long and tough running due to its lyrics are extremely
encouraging and help runners to look forward and satisfied with what they have
gained through the process.

I don't listen to music while I run, I have this app called Zombie Run. You listen to the app while you run and its like a storyline, and if you don't keep up a good pace the the "zombies" will catch you, it's pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI actually listen to a lot of the same songs as you do, it find it really helpful.
ReplyDeleteI do like to listen to music as I run, but I tend to listen to epic film scores like Lord of the Rings or something similar. I remember the story as I'm running. I'll imagine I'm in one of the battle scenes or racing through the mines of Moria. It's a lot of fun to picture stuff like that in your mind as you run!
ReplyDeleteEye of the Tiger is my favorite workout song. It's a classic! Another one that is awesome is 'Born to Be Wild' by Steppenwolf.
ReplyDeleteI love listening to music while running. It makes my time so much more amped up.
ReplyDeleteI love music, too, but I tend to slow down and sing :)
